  Open sources are great things, annoying things too. For example, take the PEAR project.

• Nvidia driver works - Thx Matthias Hopf!!! (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  I had much problems getting my X.org running with the native Nvidia driver in all distributions I tested...

Mathias Hopf directly offered to take a look at my xorg.conf and fixed all of my problems within minutes. I will put my experiences and the xorg.conf online, when I'm back from Karlsruhe. And to mention it explicitly again: THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MATTHIAS! [Read full post…]
