Had the same problem myself with an ATI card. X uses kernel mode switching these days, or at least tries to, and that usually means loading a kernel module for your video card in addition to having the correct xserver drivers.I installed all the nvidia driver kernel xserver packages, but now it seems that gnome doesn't know what size the monitor is anymore (all fonts way too large etc.) System->Preferences->Monitors looks like the attached screenshot The odd thing is the explicitly set resolution value is correct. But there is also all the stuff about the monitor being unknown. Any help or advice how to fix this greatly appreciated, Britton
