[PlanetCCRMA] Re: nvidia driver

[Dave Phillips]

Greetings:

  I'll second Andrew's remarks. I've upgraded Planet C a few times now, 
I always forget about the nVidia driver until I get the X failure. Then 
I just connect with nVidia and do their install script thing and 
everything works again. Jeez, I wish that company would get hip and 
open-source their drivers...

Best,

dp
