Thank you Jason and all other contributors,
atrmps has many nvidia drivers. I chose the v. 260 and it works great! :-D

1) login. init runlevel 3 it. compile / install your driver on the
command line. change back to runlevel 5.
2) use a premade kernel mod binary from someone like ATRpms / dag and
install it with yum.

Dear All SL 5.5 Users,
I am installing a nVidia display driver for my Quadro FX-540 on SL 5.5.
It said that it has Suspend feature. It sounds very attractive for
energy saving. As you know, RHEL 5.5's suspend and hibernate features
can hardly work (simply hangs up).

The installation requires that I exit the X-Windows to command prompt.
(1) How do I exit to the command prompt from the Gnome login gateway of
SL 5.5?
(2) How do I return to the Gnome login gateway of SL 5.5 after I have
successfully installed the nvidia display driver? :-P
The Failsafe command prompt is actually still inside the X-windows. :-D
Yours Faithfully,
Timmy Siu
