<br>> crashes back to the login screen whenever you exit mythfrontend when running<br>> the nvidia driver.)I have also tried the xv drivers with no difference. I<br>> also did a couple of full reboots, one each nv and nvidia. I have my system
<br>> set to use 24 bit color. I have 2 resolutions configured in xorg.conf. A<br>> 480p and 1080i modeline customized for my hdtv monitor. I even went so far<br>> as to manually delete the contents of the cache directories as well as all
<br>> config files and then do a full virgin install. All of this works flawlessly<br>> in 0.19.<br>> <br>> I really would like to resolve this before the full release of 0.20 so that<br>> I could report it in trac if it turns out to be a myth issue.
<br><br>William,<br> I had this exact problem a couple weeks ago. This might not be too much help, but<br>(for me) it had something to do with the nvidia drivers themselves. I am also running<br>8672. I uninstalled all of the nvidia packages and then reinstalled them and everything
<br>was fixed.<br><br>Mike (#2)<br></pre>
