 X freezing Hello All. Ok, I have kernel 2.6.7-rc2, and the latest nvidia module installed. X (Gnome) starts fine, and runs well, but if I try to switch to a console-based terminal, or try to quit out of X the screen gets garbled, and the whole machine locks up. has anyone experienced this before?

You're using a release candidate, instead of a stable kernel. Sybren -- The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself? |

I've had issues with stable kernels doing the same thing, a reinstall of the nvidia modules usually fixed it though. Mike |

Some program, like XFree86, might be trying access hardware directly. but this dont loox that bad to me. > > Mike -- Regards Sebastian Siewior |
