I haven't had any problems with the nvidia drivers since 9.1 when I
started using Mandrake, but I need some advice here.

I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.8.1-24mdk and rebuilt the nvidia driver
with version 6111 from nvidia website. At first it didn't install
because of the kernel source being /usr/src/linux symlink to lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Feb 3 20:22 linux ->
linux-2.6.8.1-24mdk
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 Feb 3 20:21 linux-2.6.8.1-24mdk/


I recently ugraded to the 2.6.8.1-24mdk kernel and installed the nvidia 6629 driver. I used the nvidia installer (package name).run with the -e option and accepted the default settings until the source directory then changed it to /usr/src/linux-2.6.8.1-24mdk. The install went through with no problems and all users can run glxgears. Just my experience HTH.
