It looks like the display contents copy is done from a more or less random memory location. 2.6 kernel: use the same driver; you might run into problems with modversions.h. This took me far too much kernel reconfig/recompile time, but this helped me getting to work: http://minion.de/files/NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-5332.README http://minion.de/nvidia.html Success, Henk
