It was in the Fedora rpmfusion repository, and the version in the repository was the same as the latest version at nVidia's website. It is version 260.19.12. Yours seems a lot of versions older. But maybe there are different numbering schemes for different versions of the driver. E.g., mine is running an Quadro NVS 140M. Wouldn't hurt to check for the latest version, though. >I did that at the recommendation of the OS. At some point it >recommended installing the nVidia driver, and I accepted the >invitation. That seems odd. In my experience Ubuntu doesn't even enable the non-open source repositories by default. Oh wait ... you have to install the nVidia driver if you want the desktop effects. That is probably when the OS "recommended" the nVidia driver. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
