    Hello,

    When i install the official Nvidia Driver from nvidia.com under Linux and configuring it in the xorg.conf, but it does the screen black and there is nothing to do, but with normal nv-driver works, but no 3d support.

    what can i do now, to solve the problem?

    i'm using the normal debian system.

    i'm from germany.
