X doesnt work with NVIDIA driver???
i spent alllll last nite trying to get X working and everytime it would crash, leaving my console unreadable (a bunch of black and green squares on the screen). now i have X up and running but im using the standard vesa driver instead of the nvidia one. checking the Xorg.0.log i find signal 11 everytime, but have been unable to determine what that means. im using an NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX 420 video card (64MB memory) with a Samsung Syncmaster 753DF (horizsync:30-70, vertrefresh:50-160). if ne other info is needed i would be glad to post it, because apparently vesa driver wont let me have 1280x1024 resolution :P
any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you
PS: i am using the most current version of the nvidia driver from their site
PSS: this is a fresh install as of last nite
