Hello Richard,

Yes, if you look at the bug history you will see I have re-tested each time the kernel, nvidia related files have been updated.
Also, Alberto Milone informs me that he has taken over as nvidia driver maintainer, so after any envyng updates I have retested also. No change so far, and no further response from Alberto.

Also I have today updated my work PC to Kubuntu 8.4.1 (3D has been broken with Gutsy update on this PC) and this now has exactly the same problem. This is on a totally different PC and nVidia card (Dell E520 and GeForce 7300) so this is by no means an isolated case. I wish dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg still worked for video config.

On my work PC I was also left with only VGA only resolution selection on my 22" 1680 x 1050 monitor. I selected a generic 1680 x 1050 monitor from the Monitor & display configuration in System settings to correct this, but my resolution at KDM logon is still wrong.

I have almost forgotten what 3D looks like now its been that long since I have been able to use it on either PC!
