Giving up on linux

Ye I am already running mozilla when I click on the link. And I'll try the source. And when you have no fucking clue how to do stuff on a linux console apart from copying and renaming files you're stuck. So I need to reinstall.

flap:
If you just want another mozilla window open you can just select the existing window and press Ctrl-N, or got to File/New Window.

TheKnifeThrower:
The problem seems to be when I need to edit the XFree86 config file. When I change the "nv" to "nvidia" and restart the pc x wont work. When i tried to restore the config file from a backup it still wouldn't work.

Stryker:
have you tried using the graphical display settings thingy? that's what i do, then simply go to runlevel 4 then back to 5. i dont know if it'd make a difference or not, but it's worth a shot.

flap:
Are there any error messages when you try to start x? Do you definitely have the driver installed?

See if
find /lib -name 'nvidia*'
returns anything.
