I have taken all the steps to get the Nvidia drivers working. I tried the rpms because I was lazy, I tried the src.rpms because thats what real men use, and I tried the tarballs because that what everyone else uses. I have LM 8.0 installed on: AMD K6-2 500 ASUS P5A mobo 256 MB ram 15 Gig WD HD 1.0-1251 NVIDIA Drivers Hercules Prophet 2 MX PCI (yes PCI) I made the proper additions to the Xf86config-4 file I set the runlevel to 3 and boot to a console. I am able to run games like Chromium but anything more advanced than that locks up my box like windows after you move the mouse. Tux racer and Quake 3 never get past the splash screens and I hear the sound but it is locked tight.BZflag never starts though it tries and open universe worked on my old diamond stealth 2000 2MB card. I have become an expert at issuing fsck and resloving filesystem problems I must say. I hate to use the old cliche but all works great in windows. Might this be related to the fact the card is PCI? I have invested more time in trying to resolve this than it took to rebuild the engine in my 76 280Z!! TIA, John W
