Dual Monitor 4:3 and 16:9 3 years 12 weeks ago

Hello

I'm new on the Linux Scene, i've installed Fedora 12 two days ago and since then I'm trying to figure out how to solve my problem on working with 2 monitors but with no success.

Let me try to explain my situation:

I have this new asus laptop with Nvidia Geforce GTX 260M gpu. My problem is the refresh rate is low with ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 beta even though I have installed the latest driver from nvidia web site.

Hi,

I got an ION330 and try to install my nvidia. I'm trying now since a week.

I've had a working desktop even running compiz just before I updated today. Anyway, after the reboot which was required after my update, I got a notification in the boot message which says:

Code: Checking for module nvidia.ko:                                [FAILED]
