I've got the 4349 drivers working fine here with v9.1 and an Nvidia Geforce
Ti4200.
You'll probably need to post the -exact- text from the error message so we can
see what is happening.
Did you do all the usual? I mean, after installation, setting the nvidia stuff
in XF86Config-4, modules, and modules.conf. Did you also do a "depmod -a"
after all that?
Here are my files (only showing relevant Nvidia stuff though):
[EMAIL PROTECTED] X11]$ cat /etc/modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are
# to be loaded at boot time, one per line. Comments begin with
# a `#', and everything on the line after them are ignored.
