| I have no ambition to experiment on my own. I Just realized this and informed the "aptosiblings". |

What towo meant was anything below GeForce 8. Geforce 6 and 7 are NOT supported by the 310.xx driver series
I have a 64MB 8400GT so may switch out my older GeForce 7900GS for it |

The confusion lies in
Code:
<=
On topic, I received not only the Nvidia [fail], but also one for alsa. Since this is far beyond my capabilities, I am content using the numerically pleasing 3.6-9 kernel since I thoroughly enjoy the Nvidia driver. If you need me to do anything special in an effort to help solve the issue, please email me and let me know. I am looking at the kern.log as I type this to make sure I am not completely crazy.
Good luck to all and hope the problem is one easily found and fixed.
As an aside, and since I don't really know where to mention something this silly, I noticed a typo in the apt-get update output. Has anyone else seen it? It states ``rred'' instead of ``read''.
Stay safe and thank you, aptosid team. Good stuff. |

k1tt3h cdn.debian = 'content delivery network' .debian

Thank you very much. You are absolutely correct. It is obvious right from the start. I was reticent to change too much in regards to the repos, ever since my little scare when the oscar mirror went down.

| Doesn't seam to want to work with compositing turned on in kde either. I had to reboot into 3.6 kernel and turn off compositing then boot into 3.7 in order to view my screen. Was skewed six ways to sunday and nothing would fix it except a hard reboot. Looks like there is something in the 3.7 that does not like nvidia at all even the nouveau drivers. |
