hello,
originally installed NVidia drivers via YOU, a real mess, tweaked it a bit with suggestions in '3Ddiag' and it worked but with regular freeze-ups (no ctrl+alt+bkspc here!). then i said dammit janet, i'll do it manually. went and got the latest ones from ftp did an rpm -Uvh for kernel and -e, ivh for glx. it still freezes regularly!!!
can anyone enlighten me how to properly install the nvidia drivers for a geforce2 mx/mx 400 on Suse 8.1. thanks
Most importantly for me: was to first do a complete update of everything in YOU (minus the NVIDIA). I think I had to run it 3 times to get all the updates of updates or something. After that I updated manually the NVIDIA drivers with YOU and no problems and no editing of XF86Config was required.
