Like Jon says but if its your first time: *Download the package. *Log out of your Window Manager *Ctrl-F1 for a command console *Login as root *type: init 3 *cd to the directory where the downloaded package resides. *type: sh NVIDIA*.run (now follow instructions) *type: init 5 *Now log yourself back in to the Window Manager and try glxgears. Please somebody correct the above if Mandrake uses different runlevels.
