Has anyone had a problem with getting the Nvidia drivers to work with the

I've gotten the 6629 NVidia driver working fine with the -24 kernel with a
GeForce FX 5200 board on my new computer.

And I had the hand-patched 6111 NVidia driver (see list archives for
details) working with the -12 kernel and a TNT 64 board on my old computer.

But I can't get the TNT 64 board to work with the -24 kernel, with either
the hand-patched 6111 or the (unpatched) 6629 NVidia driver. Either one
installs fine, and X comes up fine, but any attempt to start an OpenGl
program results in a Segmentation Fault. I haven't made any great effort to
resolve this, just went back to the nv driver.

Sorry I can't be more help.


Huh, now the -12 kernel and/or 6111 driver will not work either. Same error message. I have been all over the internet looking for answers and tried them all. Thanks for everyone's suggestions, but no soap. Guess it's time to clean house and try again. I have really no sense when it comes to installing kernels side by side. Up Up and away.


Just a thought. I have 6111 installed OK but it is against a 2.6.~ kernel and I understood at the time that that is what was required for the OpenGL stuff to work. As I said, just a thought.
