Uhm, pretty sure nVidia and ATI tend to write their binary drivers with support for the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux release in mind *before* they worry about it working with the latest upstream kernel. Remember, the ATI proprietary driver is called 'fglrx', as in "FireGL X driver", and FireGL is their high-end workstation line. -- Jarod Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
