Hello!

I tried to install NVidia drivers (from nvidia.com) for my GeForce4 420 Go on Toshiba Satellite S1410-303.

When X is starting up and my screen is switching to another graphics mode, my linux *hangs up*. I cannot switch to text mode by CTRL+ALT+Fn and my screen is black.

I installed the newest driver according to Suse HOWTO from http://www.suse.de/~sndirsch/nvidia-installer-HOWTO.html#3.

[pruned] Go to the nVidia site and read the README and the HOWTO for the driver 8774. Your card is supported by driver 8774. Cheers. -- This computer is environment-friendly and is running on OpenSuSE 10.1
