Does this mean I don't need to install the NVIDIA driver if I am using XFree86 4.2.0?
I am having a very hard time getting my system to work with X. I have a Gateway Flat Panel with DVI, the NVIDIA GeForce2 MX400, and Red Hat 7.2. I've tried the X that comes with Red Hat, just get snow or the power save mode. Then I tried adding the NVIDIA driver, just get horizontal text lines like underscores and dashes. Then I tried installing XFree86 4.2.0, can only get a very dark blue X looking screen with wierd screen positioning, teeny hard to read strange fonts, and a jumpy mouse if I use 1280x1024 and install things exactly in the order of Red Hat (with X 4.1.0) then the NVIDIA driver and then XFree86 4.2.0. If I omit the X that comes with Red Hat or the NVIDIA driver or try different resolutions then all I get is snow or power save. Any help you can provide is much appreciated. I've tried both the NVIDIA and XFree86 forums with no response.
