No sooner do I finish extolling the virtues of xawtv then Blam! I was broadsided by this...
If you find your trusty old xawtv suddenly locking up your machine hard and you don't know why, I think I found the reason - the new Nvidia driver.
Xawtv without the new Nvidia drivers works great, as always. Also, the the new Nvidia driver works fine with everything I run unless I start up xawtv. Instant lockup. I haven't seen one of these for awhile. Mouse is frozen in place, no keyboard, nothing. A hard bounce is the only thing that works.
I'd really like to get both of these guys (xawtv, Nvidia) to play nice together. Any suggestions?
