X crashes on machines with nvidia graphic cards
I'm running slax-64bit-debian-12.2.0.iso from USB. X crashes when loading nouveau driver.
[ 3358.884] (II) NOUVEAU(1): NVEnterVT is called.

Things work fine after I uninstall those drivers:
apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
@blabno, you need to report this to the nouveau project, not Slax. Sadly nvidia does not support their graphic cards for open source, you will need to use their private drivers to have a smooth experience on your graphic card.
