Re: no go

ill try the tips when i get home tonite..thanx and no there is no gui whatsoever and it say the nvidia driver failed and cant find a screen,, ok if the removal of xorg.conf works how do i get nvid cards to function because its very sluggish in vesa ? thanx phil

If the driver failed to load it's not an X problem. Try reinstalling the driver.

Re: no go

Might be better to rename rather than remove it, though - just in case there's something in there you might need.

sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.broken

Re: no go

Try...removing your old xorg.conf:

$ sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

then reboot.
