If you are trying to install the proprietary nvidia driver, I think
it won't work with the kernel used in Gnewsense. Not sure tho...
nvidia supports different linux distributions. Even in some kernel
there are nvidia drivers imported, because the readmy files on nvidia
tells, that those drivers should get disabled befor installing the
new one. I think a have also seen somewhere the drivers code witch
can be compiled, but i am not sure about this, it was on my first
search on this issue.
The driver from Nvidia's website is non-free software. gNewSense is
about providing users like you with a completely free computing
environment. Helping you install this driver would be the opposite of
what this project stands for, so we won't help you with that.
The best that gNewSense can offer you now is the nv driver, which
you're probably using by default if you have Nvidia hardware. The
nouveau project is making a free driver with more features (like 3D
support), but that's not finished or easily installable yet, as far as
I know.
Its all right if you and other don't want to help me with this, because
of what you said. I can understand that.
Hopefully you can understand me, that i won't like to use my new
computer with a resolution fo 800* 600. You can't even read pages from
the interment. And i want to stay by gNewSense because i like it. So i
have to take my "taschenlampe" and find my way one my one, its somehow
interesting.
Good wishes
Richard
