On Sat, 24 Jun 2006 06:10:20 -0700, Jeanette Russo staggered into the
Black Sun and said:


"grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf" should return a number of lines and one
like so:
Driver "nvidia"

It does in fact say Driver "nvidia"
... >
Also, "lsmod | grep nv" should return a line like so:
nvidia 4081040 12

the output shows

nvram 8393 0

nvidia 4550420 8

i2c_core 21057 2 nvidia.i2c_piix4


"modprobe nvidia" fails, reproduce

I did modprobe nvidia

I didn't seem to get any output from it

I have an older Geforce card its not a tnt but it says it is supported

Thanks for the help seems like something is missing
