The nv driver for x leaves artifacts if you shut the xserver down, with my nvidia chipset card. The nvidia proprietary driver resolves the issue. The card is actually branded Asus, it uses the nvidia tc 6800 chipset. I know that including the proprietary drivers is not going to happen, I just figure that getting it known that the nv driver may not be the best option for an nvidia chipset is a good idea. The artifact is the mouse cursor in the lower right quadrant of the display. This persists in both a no x environment after shutting x down, as well as coming back from power save screen blanking or screensaver. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
