Re: Installed and it worked, but after installing nvidia driver and running nvidia-xconfig, machine got really messed up

 

So to follow up on this. I got it to reinstall eventually, just had to wait
a long time to see anything and I think I had to have my graphics switch on
Stamina (or one particular mode anyways).

But now I don't want to install the nvidia drivers and go through that
again, has anyone tried the experimental drivers?
