I got that too, with FC6, and if I tried to use anything else that referred to the same stuff (screensavers that used them, games, etc.). If I ran the legacy driver it didn't do it, but then I found no advantage over using the open-source nv driver (i.e. I couldn't get any 3D acceleration with two different Nvidia cards). One's an Asus V8420/128M Rev 101 Nvidia NV25 GeForce4 Ti 4200, the other's NV Vanta TNT2 MS8808. The second, I'm reading a texta-written label in an awkward position, so I mightn't have it 100% right. The odd thing is that the GeForce4 card did work, without any dramas, on a friend's box running FC5, before he gave me the card. It was ages since we set it up, but I don't recall that we used a legacy driver with it. -- (This box runs Centos 5.0, my others still run FC 4, 5, 6, & 7, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
