A "G96 [GeForce 9500 GT]", which I       suppose is now obsolete. I use the proprietary Nvidia driver installed       the easy way, that is, via rpm from official repo. No issues. It also       works with the open driver, but less well.              On my laptop I use Intel video only. I do not want speed, but battery life.              --       Cheers, Carlos.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
