this is mandrake 9, fresh install .
my card is NVidia GEforce MX. everything worked very nicly after installation.
i rebooted the machine today, and X will not load. it complains that "no
screens found", which is kinda redicules since i didnt change anything in the
config file, and didnt change anything in my hardware since the last time it
worked.
the only modifications i did was to add the "load glx" option for 3d support,
and changed the driver name from "nv" to "nvidia" (had to do that for playing
quake ;)
the only way to load X now, is to change it back to "nv" and to disable glx
support.
NVidia drivers are installed (from the nvidia website) and the NVdriver module
is loaded.
XFree version is 4.2.1
my XF86Config-4 is attached.
help...?
