Okay, I installed 2.6.12-1-k7. When I reboot with that kernel image I get this: (EE) NVIDIA(0) Failed to initialize the NVIDIA Kernel module! (EE) NVIDIA(0) *** Aborting *** (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Fatal server error! no screens found Everything works fine when I reboot back to Kernel 2.6.9-1-k7. I'm suspecting that the problem is due to my using the NVIDIA Twin-View feature of my video card, with the S-Video port connected to the VCR (so I can watch non-U.S. DVDs on the TV instead of at my desk. Any ideas how I can get this to work with 2.6.12? here's my XF86Config-4 file (or at least, the relevant parts of the file): Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "XFree86 Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "nvidia" Option "NvAGP" "3" Option "DigitalVibrance" "0" Option "TransparentIndex" "0" Option "CursorShadowAlpha" "64" Option "CursorShadowXOffse" "4" Option "CursorShadowYOffset" "2" Option "Twinview" "TRUE" Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Clone" Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50" Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "60" Option "TVOutFormat?"
