Ok, everyone, other than learning all this new stuff, I have run into my first road block! I did an online update tonite thru Yast2, which updated my nVidia stuff to the new version. Whoops, should not have done that it seems, I get a lockup when the nVidia kernal is loaded!! Had to reinstall my original install kernal to get booted up beyond the login screen! I hate when that happens!! Anyone, got any ideas what is going on? Do you have to update your kernal to 2.4.7 before using this new nVidia thing or did something not get updated correctly? Does it keep an old version of the last updated nVidia kernal and GLX files before updating and where?
