I tried all of this, and now UT cores when I try to start it. If I try to start any of the Mesa demos, My monitor goes blank and my system locks. I'm about ready to give up on this.. I've been able to figure out most anything, but this one just seems to be beyond me. If anyone has any suggestions, it would be appreciated.. Thanks..
