Propriatory nVidia Drivers vs. Livna
I’m having a hard time understanding what makes Livna so hot, in the linux-world. To my understanding they are better than getting videocard drivers from nVidia’s web site because they are opensource and when you install the latest kernel update - your card won’t go bonk!? on you. As for me, I’ve been using nVidia’s propriatory drivers because that’s the only way I get World of Warcraft or any other video game to work.
The only issue that I have to deal with right now IS, when my kernel is updated. I have to run through the Xserver configuration. Once I get into my desktop, I would then switch back to my propriatory drivers or CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE back out to a full shell environment to reinstall them. It is a bit of a hassle, but I have yet to jump on the band wagon of Livna.
