I tried to test, but I guess I don't know enough about the Ubuntu repository thing. I went into synaptic and turned on hardy-proposed (and hit "Reload"), then removed and reinstalled envyng-gtk. Then I ran the NVIDIA...run script with the --uninstall option. Then I exited gdm and ran envyng -t and got the same error message (card not supported). I had assumed that with the hardy-proposed repository enabled the package manager would find and pick up the later version, but apparently this is a more subtle system than that. Any tips on what steps I left out?

Also, I assume that after I've finished testing I'll want to disable hardy-proposed. Any gotchas I should look out for in that process?
