Hi all,

the new xorg mandriva rpm packages the last version of xorg server with
new version number 1.3.0.y instead of  7.2.x ( package is
x11-server-xorg-1.3.0.0-3mdv2008.0 to be precise )

but nvidia installer seems confused by this change... it thinks the xorg
is a veeeery old version :@)

a hack seems to be possible according to this post on nvnew forum :
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490

i tried to look at nvidia plf source package for
nvidia97xx-1.0-9755.2plf2007.1 and dkms-nvidia97xx-1.0-9755.2plf2007.1
but patching the spec file seems rather more complicated than replace #
sh NVIDIA-Linux-/version/.run by # sh NVIDIA-Linux-/version/.run
--x-module-path=`X -showDefaultModulePath 2>&1 | cut -d, -f1`
--x-library-path=`X -showDefaultLibPath 2>&1`

tested the hack with NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9755-pkg2.run and that's ok

my 2 cents (and first post here)
