Or just "rmmod nvidia", "lsmod" will tell you if it's still there or not. > > but loading the nv driver, I'm not so sure about. > > Can I just replace the > > Driver "nvidia" line in xorg.conf with, Driver "xv" and restart x? Yes, normally, but I have heard tell of nVidia setups where it still loads nVidia even if you do that. The actual X server is an executable usually linked to "X" (note the cap) someplace like /usr/ X11R6/bin (seems like everybody puts it in a different place. That should be "nv" not "xv", I'm assuming that was a typo. "xv" is something completely different. My guess is that if commenting out "load glx" does not work then loading "nv" instead of nvidia will not work either, but you never know. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
