I have used the same drivers version of these drivers for Mandrake Look how the rights of your 'normal' video drivers are set (also look at the owner and group). Then install the nvidia 3d drivers and make the rights and owners of those files the same as your original video drivers. I've downloaded the drivers from the nvidia site and installed them, works great (except for a weird error message when running VICE ). Also, you will nead both the kernel driver and the glx driver !!!! (very important) and install the kernel driver before you install the glx driver grtz Dries -- <End of message>
