In an effort to stop this thread from repeating past long winded threads about NVidia drivers . . . It's not surprising that the installer doesn't know about it since the card came out after Red Hat 7.2 You may be able to get 2D support by setting it up as a GF 3, but if you shelled out the bucks for a GF 4 I assume you want 3D accelerated graphics. NVidia can't/won't (I'm not certain exactly which) release the specs so it is impossible for open source drivers to exist. NVidia does provide their own "drivers" for Linux (you need a kernel driver and a GL library - see nvidia.com); these drivers are know to have bugs (although most of the time they work reasonably well if you follow the README instructions carefully) so use at your own risk (i.e., don't ask for support/help from Red Hat since they can't support them without the source code for them). If it doesn't work, bug NVidia. Dave _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
