Solved: Restricted Drivers
Is it a bad thing that I have enabled the Restricted drivers on my box? I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 and the video card is an Nvidia 6600GT.

There was a warning that said they (the drivers) aren't supported, but does that mean they could easily fail at any moment?

Thanks.

No. It means that Ubuntu won't accept any responsibility for them. They are O.K.
