First Derek and all others who helped me: Changing the hostname worked! Thanks! Then to installing the nvidia driver. I've printed out your website manual nvidia.html, and jumped right into the job. But I can not find any folder /usr/src/nv nor the file nv.c. I've searched the entire filesystem after a file called nv.c and any file containing the text PM_SAVE_STATE and I can't find any thing. Are there a similar file, with need of a similar changes in mdk 10.0 as nv.c is in mdk10.1? Best regards, Vegard
