I've been using NVIDIA drivers for my geforce 3 with MandrakeFreq 9-xx-2001.
They seem to work pretty good, my games work, but sometimes crash, the
biggest problem i have is after i run a game and i try to switch to a virtual
console (ctrl-alt-F1) the screen is way messed up, it's completely
unreadable, then i try to switch back to graphics (ctrl-alt-F7) and it's all
messed up now. This only happens, when running a game or right after a ran a
game. that's the only complain i've had so far
