[ATrpms-users] GLX problem when loading mythtv

[Anders Hedegård]

nvidia-graphics-switch command isn't recognized by bash...

When i open the settings (# nvidia-settings) then it says that the current
driver version is nvidia 1.0-8774.

Doesn't that mean that the driver currently in use is the 8774?
