CD> Hi,

CD>     I'd like to install the latest nVidia GeForce drivers in LM8.1, but
CD> the nVidia download site only provides rpm's up to LM8.0. Is there any
CD> chance the LM8.0 drivers rpm will work with LM8.1 ?

Not unless you downgrade your kernel, but dont even think about it :)

You can use both the src.rpm's or the tar.gz's . They do work.
Also keep in mind, if you will upgrade your kernel, you will need to
reinstall them again.


CD>     The site also provides a source srpm. If the LM8.0 rpm is unusable, 
CD> perhaps I can generate the drivers for LM8.1 from the srpm ? (I've never
CD> installed from srpm's before.)

CD>     Has anyone had any success with either of these approaches ? 


CD>     I'd also like to install the glms hardware sensors (cpu temp, fan
CD> speed, etc) package. Is the Cooker version safe to use ?

Could not try that yet

CD>     Thanks for any help,
CD> regards,
CD> Charlie.
