[SLE] new install - xfree 4.0.1 and nvidia geforce2
good day all ... i just received my new amd 800 system including a geforce2 video board and i was looking over the comments regarding installing xfree4 and the nvidia drivers. so, for a new installation from the 6.4 distribution, my plan is to choose to not install X and mesa. do the 6.4 install. install Xfree4.0.1 rpms from the suse ftp site, then install the nvidia drivers via rpm also. does this make sense? is there a FAQ on this topic anywhere? thanks! -- michael -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
Read the readme. It has all of the information you need. Make sure to pay particular attention to the blurb at the end which talks about the nvidia driver. Victor On Thu, Sep 14, 2000 at 07:49:53AM -0400, Michael Galloway wrote:
