Here's the deal. I just bought me an Inno3d Geforce2 mx and I'm running slack 7.1 with the newest Nvidia kernels. The problem is that when i issue startx and get into X and then want to get back to the prompt I usually just hit ctrl+alt+backspace. Well, since I put the new video card in my video feed just dies when I do that instead of returning to the prompt. Never did this with my tnt2 so I'm a little pissed. Anybody had this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks.

Quite strange. I have a couple of questions though.

Which version of X?
Which desktop?
Does this happen if you log out of X normally? (If applicable.)
