I think this is a Matthias, I found a forum with the same problem and a patch that seems to work for people, might we get a new package of the 96xx driver? Forum thread: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=95296&page=2 Unofficial patch page: http://home.hiwaay.net/~craigg/linux/NV_patch.html An NV employee "zander" said in that thread "Yes, we plan on addressing this in the regular and legacy drivers, eventually." so who knows when any official fixes will be forthcoming.
