Re: NVIDIA patches to run it on phoebe/rawhide kernels

[Chris Chabot]

Actually you don't. I personally do because the 41xx driver has some 
serious problems with gnome2/nautilus. It somehow slows down to a crawl 
in that combination. I've been in contact with their engineers about 
this just after its release and its a 'known problem' which they hope to 
have fixed in the next update.. so since i use gnome2 for my desktop, my 
choices are limited to either the nv driver or nvidia-3123 drivers.

With some patching and the final hint from Marcel of what i was doing

4.3.0-2.1 & linux 2.4.20-2.54. Since i remeber some other ppl had 
problems with this to, i've combined the patches for your patching 
pleasure. Since the patch is 45kb is size, and i don't know if ppl would 
apreciate that on a mailing list, you can download it here:

whoops, i just noticed the version number: 3123.  did you really
need to regress to an older version of the nvidia drivers?  bummer.
