Hi Lane, What I did, after a lot of messing around trying to get things to work, was this:
- Log in to recovery console for root with networking - rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf - apt-get remove nvidia-current - apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - reboot I think that put me back to about what I had by default before I used the "Hardware Drivers" program to install the nvidia-current driver. In any event, it once again works fine unless you want to watch DVD's or some such. hth Regards, Bob On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 5:23 PM, Lane Lester <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 2:06 PM, Bob Trevithick > <[email protected]>wrote: > >> > Looks like this is all clear now.
