Hmm, I had a problem with the installed Nvidia driver, (the infamous no screen
found error) so I just installed the latest Nvidia driver, the just released
one thats supposed to include support for 2.6.xxx kernels. Glxgears is giving
good fps, so I don't think thats it. I will check just to make sure the next
time I'm on his box though.

Further note, I do get the Nvidia splash screen when booting up.
Thanks for the reply.
