OH, DAMN! I hit the wrong button and sent the message when I really 
meant to edit it! :-( .

Sorry about this :-( .

The legacy nVidia driver 173 is the correct one for the Geforce FX 5500 
card.

I stopped writing in mid sentence because I have a 550Ti card for which 
the latest drive is 295.59 and I wanted to make sure that what I was 
saying was correct. I checked the nVidia website and realised that you 
were talking about the FX5500 card and not one of the latest in the 500 
series. I went to edit the message but hit the "send" button instead :-( .

Once again, apologies.

I have one more question: you mention that you are using Kubuntu 10.04, 
which was released in April 2010, but you also state that you are using 
Firefox 13.x. Kubuntu 10.04 came, as far as I can remember, with Firefox 
v4. How have you managed to be now using FF v13?

I am asking because knowing such possibly trivial sounding details can 
help in solving someone's problem.
