Hi all,
I was trying to overclock the graphics card you see in the title some time ago, with Kubuntu 10.04 and a can't-remember-which driver version; I was using NVclock because nvidia-settings didn't work at all for overclocking - resetting to defaults values on every click of "Apply" button. I managed to take the clock from 738 MHz to 800 and even higher, but some days ago I have upgraded to Kubuntu 10.10 and no overclocking works anymore: the clock frequency seems stuck on the default values. Driver 260.19.16 - any tips?
Thanks
Ocirne
