Thanks...I will check it out and let you know if it works.

3.10.17

Well, installing the more recent driver didn't work either. At this point I'm about ready to call it quits. As I mentioned, since running updates I haven't had any screen issues. Can even get into the help file with the screen going zigzag. I would attach the log file but don't see an option here to ...

The version I was trying to install was 304.64 dated 11/2012. I now see they have a 304.88 dated 4/2013 so i will try that one. The reason I mentioned the java is because the nvidia site has an option to detect it for you so I was going to have it see which is the best one for my system ...

I sort of did that...do you run the vid driver twice??

So, tried to run the commands but no JOY. First couldn't find nouveau-blacklist.
