LinuxMCE with alpha was working fine with out using nvidia card drivers(used vesa).  I have fresh installation done on the Asus m2n68-vm with LinuxMCE-0810 beta scripts i.e. new-installer-beta2.tar.gz Dated:03-Dec-2009 17:02 file size:12K.

pre-install-from-repo.sh, mce-install.sh, post-install.sh installation went well and after restarting the system says  "AVWizard Failed to setup X <OK>"

a. tty1 shows:
   Begins Nvidia driver installation..

--> strucks here

b. i have copied existing(before nvidia installtion) /etc/X11/xorg.conf copied back but beta replaces the file. Problem still exist.

c. while running ./post-install.sh, observed the following:

Try - Option "NoPowerConnectorCheck" "true" in xorg.conf - had similar issue with different card and that worked for me.

Thanks for your inputs.   Time being I am not using Beta version and using alpha version only(recovered using from clonezilla disk backup).

Once again thanks for the same.
