I had to edit the PAM files... :\ it sucked but I got the error: Your permissions are too restrictive. Please see this readme *located where it says to go* & fix it. Its a FAQ on your comp once the drivers are installed. Other than that, follow the directions of: Change the "driver: nv" to "driver: nvidia" under the "freetype line" add: "load: glx" Other than that, you should be OK, restart X or reboot. Try tux from console, it gives you an error, you've done something wrong. I had a typo in the XF86-config-4 file. :P Femme
