Hello!
I have run into some difficulties getting my 3D-acceleration to work on my computer
I have:
Pentium II 450 MHz Diamond Viper 550 graphics card (Riva TNT) SuSe 7.0, Xfree 4.0.1
I installed the newest Nvidia drivers according to the instructions on SuSes SDB.
Everything works! I can run the 3D screensavers, Quake3 demo and so on, BUT only as root. If I try as an ordinary user i get a message saying i do not have access to /dev/nvidiactl errno=11 (or was it 13). The /dev/nvidiactl exists and I do think the permissions are in order, so I don´t know what to try next.
any ideas?
thanks

Nick, I don't have a Nvidia, but you might take a look at the following URL and see if you can get any help there. He talks about installing the Nvidia drivers. http://www4.tomshardware.com/graphic/00q3/000811/linux_geforce-01.html Nevada - - - - - - - - - - - - - Take Control of your Life Cut up your Credit Cards in Little Bitty Pieces
