Hi, <br><br>I am trying to run 2.6.38(x86_64) with nvidia 7200GS video card with 4GB of RAM. Although the kernel boots up, i just get a blank screen. I can ssh into the system. dmesg shows the following output : <br><br>[ 11.535703] NVRM: This PCI I/O region assigned to your NVIDIA device is invalid:<br>
[ 11.535704] NVRM: BAR1 is 0M @ 0x0 (PCI:0000:01:00.0)<br>[ 11.535706] NVRM: The system BIOS may have misconfigured your GPU.<br>[ 11.535710] nvidia: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -1<br>[ 11.535728] NVRM: The NVIDIA probe routine failed for 1 device(s).<br>

Anything less than 4GB of RAM is not a problem.<br>
<br>Has anyone figured this out yet.<br><br><br>
