Hi friends,

sorry for disturb one more time.

Just now I have got a black screen when booting. I can login but X doesn't start.

The only thing that I did was to insert before boot a new sound card, but I think this is not enough for this problem...

I installed one more tine the nvidia drivers with smxi but without solution.

Can you help me?

It was my fault.

I tried to enable the Horizontal Edge Scroll.

I changed Synaptics but I did"Options" instead"Option".

I could see the error from a live cd looking at the var/log/Xorg.0.log
