I want to say "Thanx!"

I am on a Dell Latitude D800 with nVidia GeForce4 Go 4200 Ti AGP8.

Upon a first try yesterday night, I could not use the 96xx driver. (I
ended up with a blank screen)

This morning I have done a complete reinstall using the beta ISO.
On first boot after the install the update manager said there was a ton of 
updates that were needed. I updated. (Took hours!)

After the update it asked for a reboot. I did it. Checked updates again.
No more...

I went to restricted manager and saw the 96xx installed but not in use.  I 
checked it to ON.
I rebooted... hoping to not see a blank screen again...

Rebooted fine!  Although I do not see an nVidia white, logo screen, it
was obvious it was working and the Restricted Manager said "In Use" as
well.

I rebooted just to make sure xorg.conf would not be corrupted.
Reboot went fine.

I enable desktop Effects.  Almost immediately I got a requester to keep current 
or Previous settings, something I did not see before when it would fail...
I said Keep Current, and checked on the show desktop on cube.

I rebooted twice to verify it was solid.......


It is now solid for me.

Thanx again!!!
