(sorry if this should be directed to -questions, but I'm using the nvidia port
and there have been several recent posts about it)
I just replaced my video card with a RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro (from
dmesg). The nvidia port installed fine, X starts up, but the text is
frustratingly blurry.
How do I go about debugging this? If this keeps up, I'm going to need some
thick glasses!
TIA
