OK, I'll give it a go. I've a slight problem though in that I'm on Linux/GeForce3 at home, and the nVidia drivers will only work if I do $/sbin/telinit 1 $root passwd $make install in kernel and GLX nVidia directories $edit XFConfig-4 $/sbin/telinit 2 Unfortunately this leaves sound unworking, and I suspect probably net access as well. On a normal reboot X fails to start and I have to put the old XFConfig-4 back. Still, if net access survives the above I'll try it out...
