That would be great.  In fact, other OpenDX users could probably benefit
from them as well.  Can they be put on the download site?

BTW, are they derived from the current version from nVidia (1.0-1251) or
the previous version (0.9-6)?  I do have the latter more or less working
with one 7.0 system.  However, one system I have is SMP and I understand
the current version has many fixes for the SMP kernel.

Thanks.

If you care I can provide you nVidia driver which works for RH 7.0. These
are unpublished drivers and I used them when I was doing Beta Testing for
Readhat 7.0

The drivers were given to me by a developers from Valinux.
