New nvidia drivers are here: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_ia32_1.0-4349 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. Matt

Do you, by chance, know which version of drivers are attained when updating via YOU? I am currently using version 3123, and don't want to accidentally get version 4191 (as I have read horrible things about it).

I don't know, I've been using 4191 since I installed my Ti 4200 on my SuSE 8.1 box and so far it's been nice. Only annoying thing I notice is that if I start UT2003 and move the mouse before the display switches to full screen mode, it won't and UT2003 is stuck in a window. Have to quit and restart UT2003 after that. Framerate seems good, and 2D mode is stable and responsive. -- John LeMay KC2KTH Senior Enterprise Consultant NJMC | http://www.njmc.com | Phone 732-557-4848 Specializing in Microsoft and Unix based solutions

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).
