ah. i assumed incorrectly! ha! i've been having trouble getting the drivers from nvidia to work, so i thought his problem was specific to the driver not working correctly.
oh well. so, i've been having trouble getting the 'nvidia' driver to work. X returns '(EE) No screens found' (or something like that) when i have 'nvidia' loading. if i use 'nv', it works fine. i don't have the log showing this handy, but i can recreate it if needed. any ideas by this short description? i can post the log, but it will be quite long.
