problem with nouveau on nvidia

hi mates, i've installed yesterday slitaz cooking

i've tried to install the nvidia non-free package and also the nouveau one but with official drivers the screen wasn't detected, with nouveau screen freezes before login...

i'll use the standard drivers, but how could i choose the correct one?

cheers

Re: problem with nouveau on nvidia

Open xterm

su

password is root

#tazpkg get-install  xorg-xf86-video-nv

#leafpad /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/60-Device.conf

Change:

Driver   "vesa"

to

Driver   "nv"

Save

#echo blacklist nouveau >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

Start slim/xorg:

#/etc/init.d/slim start
