Hi All,
I've managed to get the afternoon off, so I'm taking the time to upgrade my kernel (using up2date) to 2.4.22-1.2166
However, I know that last time I upgraded, I had to reinstall my Geforce drivers - so I'm looking to upgrade them to the latest version as well.
I currently have the following installed:
[root@mailgate new]# rpm -qa | grep nvidia nvidia-glx-1.0.4496-0.fdr.10.1 kernel-module-nvidia-driver-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl-1.0.4496-0.fdr.10.1 kernel-module-nvidia-driver-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl-1.0.4496-0.fdr.10.1
Firstly, I can't recall where I got those rpms from :(
Secondly, I grabbed a URL from another thread on this list and went to look at the rpms there: http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/dist/fc1/nvidia-graphics/
There are so many to choose from, that I'm confused as to which to get.
I have an Althlon XP 1800 and a Geforce 4 Ti (I forget which model)
Can somebody please tell me what to install and ease my aching brain.
Thanks.
I have had similar questions in the past. And have tried a variety of solutions all of which worked okay, but some took more doing then others :) But now http://rpm.livna.org
gets them out pretty quickly. So last evening I installed the new
kernel and got the nvidia kernel module from them using apt-get. It's all working very nicely so far. You can also get the updates for nvidia-glx this way if you need it.
