    CoolBits in Karmic

    How do I install/see coolbits in my x sever settings window? I added the Coolbits option 1 line to the xorg.config file but I see nothing called Coolbits.

    Thanks for any help

    Alt-F2 "nvidia-settings" with no quotes, and then the second tab should show it. It is called "Clock Frequencies".

      awesome.. I wasn't sure if that had been there before.. I hadn't previously paid attention.

      I have a different problem then. The overclock settings reset after restart; is there a way

      to make them permanent

        The only way I've found to make the overclock settings "stick" is with a .kderc script in my user's /home/dibl directory. Here's mine (ignore the Conky stuff -- you want the ones that start "nvidia-settings"):

        Code:
        #!/bin/bash
        sleep 20 &&	# 0 good for Xfce - use 20 to 30 for Gnome
        conky -c ~/Conky/conkymain &
        #sleep 0 &&
        #conky -c ~/Conky/conkyweather &
        sleep 20
        nvidia-settings -a GPUOverclockingState=1 &
        sleep 1
        nvidia-settings -a GPU2DClockFreqs=300,300 &
        sleep 1
        nvidia-settings -a GPU3DClockFreqs=713,1230 &
        sleep 1
        fusion-icon
        #end
        Don't forget to make it executable. Then it should run at every login. You can set it to run in System Settings > Advanced > Autostart as well.
