Re: [SLE] NVidia rpms - what next

After all the recent chat about graphics cards I decided to try enabling 3D on my GeForce 2 MX, which had been running quite happily in 2D.

I downloaded the 2 rpms from NVidia's site, and installed them. then I ran 3Ddiag. Gears before was doing about 68 fps, and afterwards was doing about 75 fps. Not really worth it, unless I have missed something.

I have just noticed Ben's recent post advocating using the tars, and not running switch2nvidia_glx. I haven't done the latter (unless 3Ddiag did) - is there anything obvious I have missed?

Thanks

Of course the easy way would be to run sax2, click enable 3D, save, and exit. Worked for me. John
