It probably isnt your xorg configuration, although you might try changing the Modules section to this... Section "Module" # This loads some basic X extensions. Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension # Some graphics specific modules Load "extmod" # basic graphics subsystem extended support Load "glx" # glx support EndSection You might like to run revdep-rebuild -p and pay special attention to any graphics stuff that is broken. Im also running the same chipset and it goes flawlessly with that driver version. Other posibilities, longshot but worth checking are sound (especially artsd in kde), and gtk support (firefox dependancy). PS you did run 'opengl-update nvidia' right? -- A programmer is a person who passes as an exacting expert on the basis of being able to turn out, after innumerable punching, an infinite series of incomprehensible answers calculated with micrometric precisions from vague assumptions based on debatable figures taken from inconclusive documents and carried out on instruments of problematical accuracy by persons of dubious reliability and questionable mentality for the avowed purpose of annoying and confounding a hopelessly defenseless department that was unfortunate enough to ask for the information in the first place. -- IEEE Grid newsmagazine -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
