It looks like you are having an issue with the agpgart (agp) stuff, during the install Mandrake loads a kernel driver based on the chipset it detects, by commenting out what Mandrake detected and loads I was able to get the nvidia agp driver to load. I just check my /etc/rc.sysinit using vi, in m

As root do a cat /proc/nv/card0 What is your agp status? Enabled or Disabled. and agp driver says NVIDIA You can also confirm which x is using by checking your /var/log/XFree86.0.log. If it is the one from the kernel you need to stop that from loading, so the nvidia one can get in there. I

Hi what I meant was that you download the NVIDIA*.tar.gz files. if there isn't direct link to them, there is a link to their ftp so download it from there (read the howto). On Tue, Apr 24, 2001 at 02:54:00PM +0200, Erik Günther wrote: > On Tue, 24 Apr 2001, Haim Ashkenazi wrote: > > > Hi > >
