Hi, Axel

I am back again. I upgraded the kernel and drivers on two other computers,
and everything worked fine. So, I tried the nvidia driver from atrpms at
home
again, and the same problem - the module did no load, and I had to return to
the driver I compiled myself (identical source and version).

I saved Xorg.0.log from the failed version of the driver, and the
interesting part is below. Why is Mouse0 detected as  type KEYBOARD when I
use ATrpms module? The only difference is that at home I use "evdev" as the
mouse driver, and I have a touch pad on the keyboard (serial mouse), and at
work I do not.

Maybe the problem is a different version of a package at ATrpms. I do no
know.

I have no other clue.

If you have a suggestion .....

Thank you.

/Paulo Roma.
