what does "sax2 -p" show you ?
I think this card is like many others set to be configured
with the vesa driver whereas it was "nv" before. The problem is
we had an automatic mapping from nv to nvidia if the binary
nvidia driver is installed but if the original PCI table set
this card to be configured as vesa this magic doesn't apply
Using the -m 0=nvidia option should allow you to configure
the device but that option is by design evil and shouldn't
be needed
Stefan is there a reason why you changed that many cards to
vesa ? I got tons of reports that we now use vesa and -m 0=nvidia
works for most people
