probs switching between nv driver + nvidia driver

[Hugo V. <hvw...@ya...>]

Hi,

I have a TNT2 AGP + MX440 PCI + Debian Stable XFree86
or Debian Unstable Xorg.

The latest closed source nvidia driver I can use is
7167.

But that gets the xerver failure problem when logging
off from the PCI connected monitor, at times.

So I switched to the nv driver. But I have the
strangest problems switching between a partition that
runs the nvidia driver and one that runs the nv driver
and vv.

It generally works on the same partition without
rebooting, but with reboots the PCI side won't come
up: at times xorg will loop, or xfree86 will say no
device found. Or nvidia will say the driver cannot be
loaded.

No problems when you stick to either one or the other
and do not mix.

Has anybody else have that problem?

Thanks!

Hugo
