Can anyone tell me what this new driver brings except the completely new network capable installation procedure? I can't find any decent changelog with some info... Are some of the known issues in 4191 solved?
Regards Harry
PS.: anyone tried it already?

Thats the good news, bad news:
You need to get the RPM of them, and I cannot find them anywhere. SuSE 8.2 will be capable of running the new installer, not 8.1 or below.

Go to ftp://download.nvidia.com and then go to the dir marked "XFree86" and not "XFree86_40" (that will take you to the older versions). The newer 4349 versions are at the 1st directory and they have rpms for 7.x and and 8.x prior to 8.2. I have dl'ed them and will post my results on the list (wish me luck - 4191 was no fun at all).
Cheers, Curtis.
I just installed it last night, rpm -hUv kernel then GLX (didn't have to use the nodeps or force flags) and it went right in. No issues and the frame rate and look is much better IMO. I seems to be a keeper :) Cheers, Curtis. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+iakE7WVLiDrqeksRAisJAKCguaEIDhVAraKsYcO1wIvb0FwbPQCfTnCS eHglU0AaXsR9CkpN42+fYrc= =1V6d -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
