My box has a NVIDIA GeForce4 Graphics card. With both 9.0 and 9.1 install / upgrade I the card was NOT configured at install / upgrade time. What I needed to do was ... 1) Use the nvidia installer for 1.0-5336. sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1.run 2) Configure XFree86 with sax2 -m 0=nvidia This is a big of a pain. I was wondering if this was necessary with 9.2 upgrade from 9.1 john
