what's the yellow screen after startx ?
Code:
grep root .xinitrc After `startx`, screen always jumps to black from yellow(which is a boring blink). Code:
grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf Code:
uname -a Can i remove such a blink ? Regards!

Do you still get that if you use the vesa driver?

Yes, you must manually configure the VESA "chipset" to avoid auto-configuring the nv(4) driver. See vesa(4). 1440x900 is one of the standard resolutions of VESA BIOS Extensions (VBE).
VESA provides no hardware acceleration, since it is an industry standard and not specific to any video hardware manufacturer's products.

jggimi, thanks FYI. i found http://unix.aspcode.net/view/6353950...vidia-and-xorg too. However, i can only get 640x480 using vesa.

The VESA driver can only use the modes that the BIOS presents. Your xorg.0.log will show the modes available.
