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.
