 Thanks but
A) my laptop is a professional tool. I really can't afford to run alpha
software.
B) the real issue is with the installer and how it does x configuration.
  It currently uses a driver that doesn't work. It should use the vesa
driver--that would allow users to have x windows when the install
finishes. At that time the users can decide to install the binary
nvidia driver or not.
