[mythtv-users] Strange color issue with nVidia MX440 [SOLVED]

[Decker]

Well, at the end, I did a fresh install, and use the drivers from Nvidia 
web instead of the ones from ubuntu repositories...and all went like a 
charm, with better quality than the original instalation...

Well, another thing learned...

Thanks for the help.
