Hey guys, thanks in advance for reading my post.

I've got a little problem, when I try to boot X on my notebook with the nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx drivers the screen produces garbage, just lines all over the place, different colours etc.

This is my spec:

Samsung X10 Notebook
Gentoo Linux 1.4 (vanilla-sources 2.4.22)
Intel Centrino 1500MHz
512 RAM
XFree 4.3.0
NVIDIA-KERNEL+GLX v4496

Here is my current XF86Config file:

Section "Module"

Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
Load "type1"
Load "speedo"

EndSection


Section "Files"

RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"

FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"

EndSection

There were no errors in the /var/log/XFree86.0.log file :(

If you could have a look into this problem I would be much abliged. :D

Thanks a lot
