OK... so I followed the nvidia guide.

Got nvidia-drivers installed and working. Direct rendering is turned on.
Killed off the nVidia logo, too.

My graphics card is 6600GT with 128 MB of RAM.
Glxgears get 5-10 fps in a tiny little window.
Crack-attack is unplayable.

What could I have done wrong?

Sure I can.

At least post the xorg.conf; little more information I can only post when someone asks me specifically.

Well, the problem disappeared... at least for now.

So I guess this would be redundant.
