Download both of the .src.rpm files and then
" rpm --rebuild Nvidia.xxx.src.rpm " for each one. Install the resulting RPM's which will be located in /usr/RPM/RPMS/Ix86/ LM8.1 has full sensor support, so you should NOT download cooker files. You merely need to run the sensors configuration scripts to set things up. As a rough rule, avoid cooker files unless you know EXACTLY what you are doing. -JMS |-----Original Message----- |From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Charles Darcy |Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2001 2:30 AM |To: Mandrake List |Subject: [newbie] nVidia drivers + glms (cpu temperature |sensors) for LM8.1 | | |Hi, | | I'd like to install the latest nVidia GeForce drivers in |LM8.1, but the nVidia download site only provides rpm's up to |LM8.0. Is there any chance the LM8.0 drivers rpm will work with LM8.1 ? | | The site also provides a source srpm. If the LM8.0 rpm is |unusable, |perhaps I can generate the drivers for LM8.1 from the srpm ? |(I've never installed from srpm's before.) | | Has anyone had any success with either of these approaches ? | | | I'd also like to install the glms hardware sensors (cpu |temp, fan speed, etc) package. Is the Cooker version safe to use ? | | | Thanks for any help, | | |regards, | |Charlie. | | |
