Re: video problems - FIXED, but don't know why

Dushan Mitrovich <anti@xxxxxxxxxxxx>:
In case anyone should find this useful, here's how the video problems
described below got fixed.

Something had given me the hint that re-installing the free SNAP video
driver - using identical steps - didn't give identical results. So I
tried the re-install several times, and the last time suddenly the screen
stayed painted and responsive, with all the expected options. I have no
idea what changes actually occured to finally make things work. This
means I haven't learned as much as I'd like.

"Works" is good. Enjoy. Install often. Each install is a learning
experience. Strength and honour!
