Well, x-server seems to be running fine but when I click on the screensaver option in KDE control center or try to start some games my monitor crashes and just reads "out of scan range". I've configed it loads of times with Sax / Sax2 but still can't seem to touch certain programs without it freaking out. Also, can't get my monitor to recover so leaves me little choice but to reboot and I know there must be a better way than that.

This seems to be a dreaded nVidia TNT2 card. My guess: 1) You are using XFree-4.0.1 or 4.0.2 2) You are using the nVidia drivers. I have never got these to work properly, so for the meantime have reverted to the XFree nv/mesa modules and drivers, till better support comes along -- On Monday 05 February 2001 18:28, napi5 wrote:

I use the nVidia GeForce2 card which just got official support Jan 18. Be sure to use the nVidia drivers ***0.9-6*** or higher. Also use the driver named ***nvidia*** not nv. XF86 4.0.2 is supose to have the corrected drivers in that release but I havn't used it yet so I don't know it the driver name was changed back. Try "nvidia" first I would think a driver not found error would be more easy to clean up after than a driver that didn't work correctly. On Mon, 05 Feb 2001, muzh wrote:

For Geforce 2 definately use "nvidia". nv is the open source alternative, but it does not work as good as the Nvidia one... XFree 4.02 is the best way to go...And maybe the only way. Matt On Mon, 05 Feb 2001 18:42:57 Kurt R. Rahlfs wrote:
