I want to install a GeForce MX 4000 graphics card in SuSE 8.1. Following SuSE instructions, I rpm'd the NVIDIA_kernel rpm. Next, I'm supposed to 'rpm -Uhv NVIDIA_GLX*.rpm' - except that I'm getting an error message:
failed dependencies: libnvidia-tls.so.1
hm, this is for thread local storage, that wasn't really around in suse 8.1. Are you sure you got the correct rpm? Besides, as far as I know, that lib is provided by the driver you're trying to install, so even if it is for 8.1, it should provide it itself. Is that the complete error message you get?
Where/How do I get this file for SuSE 8.1? (I saw it's provided in the 'avifile' rpm for 8.2, but not for 8.1!)
libnvidia-tls.so.1 in avifile??? That doesn't sound right. How did you see that?
