No kiddin'? I got the .95 to work with 2.4.0 pretty well using a patch
someone made for them Then nvidia released the .96 a few days later.
I'm still running the .95 on 2.4.0 I downloaded the 2.4.1, but have been
hesitating about installing it due to the reports of it's filing structure.
I have a few problems with 2.4.0 and installers not finding things sometimes,
which I usually fix by installing a slightly new version of whatever it
thinks I don't have. Then like a miracle it can find what it couldn't.
*Have you had any problems installing new apps or things not working because
of the new filing structuring of 2.4.1?
Mine is a patched up job right about now. Upgraded to kde2.1b2 and upgraded
apps here and there and installed this and that. I had to reinstall alot of
things other people didn't just to get the kde2.1b2 to install. Probably due
to installing 2.4.0. Might as well go for it. Darn I wish it was Saturday
night instead of Sunday night! Man work is such an inconvience! :)
Well, now I'm psyched. I think I'll go for it.
Thanks,
