DISQUS

No problem Torley. I did roll back the drives to the 163 version and my water views are back to normal. I filed in JIRA and on the NVIDIA site as well. Keep up the great work. Rainbow pie to you...

I recently updated my Nvidia Drivers, 175.19, running on an SLI set of two 7600gs boards. Previously I had no problems with video and have always been very pleased with my view of the world. Now however, I can no longer see terrain under water. I can see objects fine, can see the surface as before, but terrain is just black.

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated.

I own two domains that use secondlife in them. I have no problem putting a disclaimer on the site that clearly states I am not affiliated with linden labs. However, I will continue to use them as I see fit.

A good analogy is Harley Davidson. They are almost rabid in protecting their name, logos, etc. I can not use Harley Davidson in a domain name, that is their company name, but if I want to make a domain using sportster, one of their model names, I can. I can not name a motor cycle Sportster, but I could name a car that.

I can not use LindenLabs in a domain name, that would clearly confuse people, but secondlife is not theirs in the way that they seem to believe it is. I can not name another world secondlife2 and get away with it, but if I write a blog called my secondlife, LL doesn't stand a chance of making me remove it. It has to be clearly a situation where people could confuse whatever it is I have made for the product being protected. That simply would not be the case.

If I name a domain carsinsecondlife, there is no way the courts would take it away, just as if I created a site called allaboutsportsters, Harley would not be able to stop me.

If Limping Labs wants the two domains I own, they can pay me for them. I think 5 islands and free tier for year would about cover it.
