This behavior can be fixed by adding the following to the Device section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4: Option "PciRetry" "true" This is how mine looks: Section "Device" Identifier "device1" VendorName "nVidia Corporation" BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce3 (generic)" Driver "nvidia" Option "DPMS" Option "PciRetry" "true" I was having a similar issue with sound in RTCW and this little entry fixed all of my sound problems. I hope this may help some of you out there who are experiencing the same problem. Credit for this finding goes to Levi Ramsey who posted this on the Cooker Mailing list.
