Gene: Could you do me a favor? Do you have with this driver you've installed a "NVIDIA X Server Settings" option under your system menu? If so, could you click on it and open that gui, and then click on the "Open GL/GLX Information" button and tell me what it does? I'm using the latest NVIDIA driver from freshrpms with the dkms package installed - it works great for me and glxgears gives me good results and google earth works flawlessly, but, when I press that option in the configuration gui, my x server immediately shuts down and returns me to a login screen -- very strange. -- Claude Jones Levit & James, Inc.
