It's not going to do anything if you didn't build a KMS driver. It's just a kcmdline option like any other; if there's no module to honor it, then it doesn't do anything. grub doesn't have any particular KMS awareness. I'm really going to have to see an X log and dmesg from the failure mode when actually using nv to diagnose this any further. - ajax --=-x1w80BvCqQ8gde5JS0QA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkuRJ0wACgkQW4otUKDs0NPHFgCeL2rByqTvPXu+N4eCdlAsFFfk 4+sAoOJseyYgWbnKqOKoQK737hAc/5DF =nMz9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-x1w80BvCqQ8gde5JS0QA--
