One trick I've used quite a few times, was to test to see if the
nvidia restricted drivers would work on a machine before installing by
doing the following:
1) booting a live cd
2) installing the restricted drivers
3) pressing ctrl+alt+backspace to load them
Will this be possible in 9.04 without

Hi Odysseus

I'm just kinda asking how to restart X without rebooting the computer,
so that I can test nvidia drivers in a live cd session..
I take it there must be a way from the command-line.. Oliver suggested
logging out and back in again.. hopefully that'll
Alex,
You should be able to change the configuration settings on the Live cd,
and then test it out in that manner. Though there might be a little extra
work involved, as my (potentially incorrect) assumption is that a reboot is
needed for those configuration settings to take effect.
