Yes, again I think you're right on the configuring part to nvidia, even 
if I did not install nvidia-current which I normally do to a hard disk 
installation. I installed some other ubuntu based (E17 enlightenment) 
distro to my thumb and I also don't install any proprietary driver and 
this works everywhere. That's why I mentioned this on the list. So yes, 
I think there may be some config issues if you move the HDD around.
