Hey, It seems the driver works fine if you manually setup the fan control. I have been using nvclock to-do this eg: #nvclock -f -F 70 I dont want to downgrade due to experiencing better performance with the newer driver. note: GTX260 core BE, temps stable $ nvclock -T nvidia GeForce GTX 260 => GPU temperature: 65C => Board temperature: 55C And that's under load Regards, Angus.
