Re: Success - at last

Hi Gareth,

Have you experienced any locking problems with your NVidia cards? We=20
have tried using GeForce cards and after a while we got some black=20
screens and had to restart the X on that card (usually the third or=20
fourth). Sometimes restarting X wouldn't work and we had to reboot. We=20
managed to reproduce the error by running xscreensaver on all four=20
heads. "lsmod" would show the nvidia module loaded more than 200 times.

Greetings,
Daniel
