Hi.

When i set up my pc it will not boot into X if the nvidia driver is defined. but if i boot up using nv, change the config file to nvidia and reboot X everything works fine..

this leads me to a problem in /etc/modules.conf ??? could someone please tell me exactly the line i need to add to this file to get the nvidia driver to load correctly??

have tried with alias char-195-major nvidia and alias /dev/nvidia* nvidia

neither of these options appear to work correctly. do i need both? or just one?

also do i need to put nvidia in /etc/modules

thanx for any help..
