Video BIOS with last two drivers...

[Dreoth]

I did some testing, tried the KT400 workarounds... no go...

I did notice this however...

Using the last two driver versions, doing the command 'cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0' returned this:

cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0
Model: GeForce3 Ti 500
IRQ: 11
Video BIOS: ??.??.??.??.??
Card Type: AGP

but with the 3123 drivers I get this:

cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0
Model: GeForce3 Ti 500
IRQ: 11
Video BIOS: 03.20.00.19.08
Card Type: AGP

I think this may be related to some of the issues people are having... hope it helps with fixing the issues... for now I'll stick to what works. (Still cant fix the console crash bug, any fixes will be greatly welcomed)

??.??.??.??.?? appears when you query the video bios and X isn't started. Starting X will show the correct video bios string.
