ok...thanx for the confirmation. i was starting to feel like an idiot
after somebody pointed me to rpm's..no offense...but i did say i tried
rebuilt the rpms..etc, we probabely also have different versions of the
cooker kernel also

Although i have yet to really go thru everything thoroughly, this is
unusual bug activity which all points back to the kernel.  could be that
i downloaded at a bad time.  happens sometimes.

In no way was I trying to make you feel like an idiot. I just knew that those 
files worked as I am using them myself on the latest mdk kernel. Sometimes 
you download a bad src.rpm with dependency problems, so I thought I would at 
least give you another option.

You can find the NVidia RPMs for 2.4.2-20 at: 
http://www.crazy-horse.net/cooker along with a working X config file. Don't 
thank me though, thank Con for getting them to me to put up! =) They work 
just fine for this kernel and i imagine he'll update them when the next 
kernel version comes out.
