Nvidia drivers cut some of screen off

Neoltlink · 04-09-2006, 06:33 PM

I just installed the nvidia drivers, and now part of the left of the screen is cut off(most of the KMenu icon, and icons that I had on the left). It only happened after I installed the drivers, not sure what to do. Any ideas?

Slackware 10.2
2.4.31 kernel
KDE 3.4
nvidia 6600GT AGP 128mb
1024x768 resolution

By chance is your monitors screen positioning off center? If this is the case, just press your monitors menu button and adjust the screen positioning.

Had to ask, sometimes the solution is simple.

If not, you should check your VertRefresh and HorizSync settings in xorg.conf.

yeah, i can confirm that when i install nvidia drivers on my box i always need to adjust the monitor's display a little to the side... i have an nvidia mx440 and an LG monitor...
