Since I'm having similar problem with Nvidia I'll just
jump in and tell my story....After installing the 5336
driver from nvidia whith the sh NVIDIA*.bin
everything was fine ...but I made the mistake of
ungrading my kernel with the newer kernel for
Athlon-166 ..the nvidia dirvers refuse to load
complaining that there is no matching kernel...I had
to modify the XF86Config file to load the nv driver
for me to get X going again..
Now what I found that kind work for now to get nvidia
loading again at least to see that screen that says
Nvidia before the login sceen load.. for some reason
when I try to update my system again, the nvidia
drivers was part of the list so I Select the Nvidia
driver then when the installation was compled I was
able to see the Nvidia screen again..
Nevertheless, I still have 2 problems that I dont know
how to solved.
1) the sceen flick a lot before the nvidia screen
comes on that indicate there is a problem loading the
drivers
2) Even after downloading the kernel src the
Nvidia*.bin still refuse to install still complaining
that there is non matching kernel at the end it failed
to compile a new kernel for me.
One question I have D/L and installed the kernel src
"kernel-source-2.4.21-166.src.rpm" but I'm unable to
find where the src where installed.. there is nothing
in /usr/src no linux directory
Thanks for any help
