Same problem with 173 and 177 on a 8800GT. I also tried the manual install of 177.80 from NV web site. Also noticed that displayconfig-gtk isn't around any more which was handy for setting the dual monitors without NV support. This is clean install from liveCD 8.10 this week. The generic driver from the liveCD at least supported the multiple resolutions and monitors, but now I can't do that and am considering another clean install and forgetting the NV drivers/effects. There's been problems with each U-upgrade, but this is pretty clearly a NV issue and I've forwarded concerns to them. I've got similar but less severe issues with their Vista drivers as well. Oh well. I'll keep looking through the forums and related bugs here to see if something installs, since there appears to be another couple reports related to this. Cheers
