I'm now sure I know enough to answer your question. I first attempted to
use NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9746-pkg1.run from here:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-9746.html
but my graphics card is too old.
Anyways, it is now working at 1024x768. I thinks its capable of more,
though.
OFF-TOPIC: I now have a fully running debian system. It is my first. I
have been using Suse, but I wanted to move on to something else after
Novell's dealings with M$. So thanks to all on the debian mailing lists.
> Just curious:
If you're using a stock debian kernel, why not use the pre-packaged
nvidia drivers?
Get X working with the nv driver and save that xorg.conf as
xorg.conf.nv.
Then install the nvidia drivers and run the nvidia-xconfig script to
convert the xorg.conf file and ensure that the modules get loaded
automatically.
It worked for me running Etch amd64.
Doug.
