2012-05-03 Thread Raffaele BELARDI
One month ago I switched to an Nvidia-based (ASUS GT520, PCI-e) video card on an ~amd64 box. I immediately had problems with the latest Nvidia driver causing a segfault when X started (text console is ok) so I switched to 295.20-r1 and everything was fine. But I forgot to mask 295.40 and during

Right, I am just not sure that's the only way. Since I just want to copy one file in and one file out on many servers, this solution will double the work. It's just for servers auditing, you know. But thanks a lot anyway. Appreciate you help. :-) On Thu, May 3, 2012 at 9:20 PM, Adam Carter
