Hola buenas, Estoy intentando que el servicio al cliente de Nvidia me ayude a instalar los drivers nvnet para mi ASUS A7N8X y no consigo que me ayuden. Puede ser que yo este haciendo algo mal o puede ser que con el kernel 2.4.18 no rule ni de coņa. Puede alguien echarle un vistazo a esta historia y poner algo de luz en la oscuridad.
Saludos y gracias a todos.

Allen, are there any possibility for issuing a driver as the one you have for the graphic cards (.run) ... I haven't any problem for installing it. Thks for your good support.

These should be part of the "kernel development" package that came with your distro, and they're needed to build kernel modules. -Allen > -----Original Message----- > From: Miguel Corbella [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, December 01, 2003 4:23 AM > To: Scott Pritchett; Allen Martin; Linux-Nforce-Bugs > Cc: Personal - MCorbella (ONO) > Subject: 3rd reminder - Error : nvidia drivers & linux > > > Please can someone in Nvidia help me to run my NIC nforce and > the audio.
