Hello Israel!
christopher at COMPAQ:~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [GeForce GT
640] (rev a1)
christopher at COMPAQ:~$
Yes, I have the nvidia drivers installed.
I think I have xcomp installed, I was trying to get DOCKY to work but it
kept leaving this black shadow on the screen
Thanks! and here is the desktop if you want it! I got it from VANILLA
DEBIAN back when I used plain debian Wheezy.
