Subject: Display artifacts w/ NVIDIA
I have display artifacts in the form of mouse pointer trails, when I am using
Corel's Word Perfect 8. These remanants of the cursor only ocurr if I move the
mouse quickly and are most pronounced in Word Perfect and Abiword.
I have followed the advice of the SuSE support data base and reduced my
horizontal and vertical refresh rates. They are very near the monitors optimal
settings.
I have a Diamond Viper 770D RIVA TNT2 card which has the nVIDIA chipset. This
is an accelerated video card. I have also installed the nvidia and nv_glx rpms
from the SuSE patch site. In addition I added the line Load "glx" to
XF86Config. The rest of the KDE applications do not have this problem.
Will installing XFree86 4.0.1 make any improvement?
<p> Thanks in Advance
Jonathan
