Working great here, thanks for the guide!

thanks paul, the auto settings fixed it. Kind of strange, but glad its working.

After my last update to nvidia-drivers-169.09-r1 my screen is now "shifted" to the right by a couple of inches. I tried going back to 169.09 with the same results. I've never had this happen, so I'm not real sure what to do about it. any thoughts?

Tunables for sure!

When will you update this guide? beside is GCC 4.2 is good now?
and what about a new emission kernel ??

He just updated it Oct 22, and I released a kernel on Oct 05. How often do you expect new releases of everything? Want some methadone?

Hell, this is November now! what is this, debian ...

I think there is something wrong with Arch. It is way slower than the rest

must be, it's very fast here. keep in mind that arch is i686 optimized, whereas others are i386 optimized. this alone should give you a faster system. On another note, gentoo (and arch) don't hold your hand. You will have ...

Truc, Thanks for the very nice how-to. Can't wait to try it tonight!

For reasons I have not yet determined, building inevitably fails when I tell it I don't want the Rio Karma drivers... I'll post back when I discover more.
