I downloaded the two tarballs on NVidia's website, and I can unpack the GLX 
one fine, but the kernel one doesn't work. Whenever I try to perform the make 
install step on it, it produces Error 255 (which seems to mean 255 errors...). 
I tried using the Mandrake 8.0 rpm with the GLX, but it still doesn't work. It 
says that no screens can be found when I run startx. I'm completely at a loss 
as to what I should do, especially since I can't find the 2.4.2-2 kernel or 
source anywhere, so I can't recompile and get the RH rpms to work that way. 
Any help whatsoever would be appreciated; keep in mind that I'm new to Linux, 
but any help you can give would be appreciated.
My system specs: Dell Inspiron laptop, 900MHz, 256MB RAM, kernel 2.4.3-12, 
KRUD August Distro (which is built on RH 7.1, although with a more advanced 
kernel), GeForce2Go. Thank you, so much, and also to the nvidia tech who 
already helped me out a little.
