I am not sure what you are trying to get running with a Nvidia driver. I have a Nvidia GForce 4 video card that runs perfectly out of the box, and I have a ASUS A7N8X Deluxe mobo that under 9.2 seems to be working very well with Nvidia Lan, Nvidia North and South bridge chips. Don't download the drivers from the Nvidia site, they are precompilied for another kernel, and will only lead to trouble. Mandrake's Nvidia support is pretty good now that 9.2 has come out, and for video was great since 9.0, which is the earliest I have used Mandrake, and NVidia cards.
