    There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX. We don't believe this to be a coincidence.

    It seems I was just a wee bit hasty with all the hurrahs there.
    I have the same problem on bootup as before, I have had agood look around the Nvidia linux forum and there does seem to be a lot of fiddling about with various driver patches there.
    It seems that mdk10.1 does have difficulties in loading the nvidia module at startup.
    I have posted a query there:

    None of the solutions that seem to have worked for the others there are giving me any joy.

    Try editing /etc/modprobe.preload and adding nvidia

    I have already got "alias char-major-195 nvidia" in modprobe.conf ( I didn't put it there), in modprobe.preload there is "nvidia" (no quotes) in /etc/modules there is also the same "nvidia"(also no quotes).
    All of which have been suggested on that forum but don't seem to make any difference.

    What problem is that, precisely?

    The X server seems to crash and it says connection reset by peer.
    If i su to root and modprobe nvidia it then loads and I can start the xserver and kde.

    well it seems to have stopped doing it now.
    I just rebooted again and it has loaded normally.
    Perhaps one of those file entries has made a difference though why it didn't before I dunno.
    Thanks for all your help.
