** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  1. Just upgraded to hardy from a working gutsy install using the
  "nvidia" driver. Now the nvidia driver doesn't work -- every time I
  boot, the splash screen starts up in the proper resolution (1440x900),
  then I see the text login screen for a moment, then I get the "low
  graphics" warning with the choice to Continue, Cancel, or Configure.
  
  By configuring, I can get the "nv" driver to work in the "test," but the
  changes are never kept, even if I choose to save to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  
  Using the Hardware Drivers menu item doesn't help at all either.
  
  The only way I was able to get my screen in the correct resolution was
  by personally editing xorg.conf, specifying the "nv" driver, hashing out
  all the modelines and using normal modes instead (i.e. "1440x900" rather
  than "1440x...@60").
  
  I tried changing "nv" to "nvidia" so I could get 3d hardware
  acceleration, but this sent me back down to the inferior resolutions, so
  maybe the problem is with the nvidia driver.
