Nouveau instead of 304xx

Tired it. Certainly looks better. But will quickly hang up if I start a second session!

More on Nvidia 304xxx

Can I continue using it if I update xorg? I use dkms. Status of nouvaux with kde and Firefox? Had been problems before. Can I try it by getting rid of the modprob.d blacklist?

Nvdia 304xxx

What is happening with this? I would gladly use nouveau but it has had problems with Firefox and kde.
