Re: [newbie] Geoforce 256 + mandrake 7.2
I tried following these steps, however, the GLX file doesn't make properly because on my system the .../modules/extensions dir doesn't exist, there is a file called extensions but no dir, also some of the settings, in XF86Config file, that i need to change aren't there in the 1st place. when running the nv_check it falls over looking for nv_module.o (something like that) which is in the ../modules/extensions dir. This is driving me mad, because i have tried a couple of things each time i have re-install.

[newbie] Geoforce 256 + mandrake 7.2
I can't seem to configure my geoforce card correctly. The x windows works fine, i just can't get the 3d to work. I have an athlon 800 + 128mb ram, so should get more than 1 fps on GLTron! Other games seem to run really slow too, like tuxkart. I have the mesa drivers installed. I did a customised developer install with almost everything there OK. The other thing is that although xfree86 4 is installed the xr116 is 3.3.6 version I haven't yet tried doing the XFree86 -version, but in on e of the config utils i have seen it reported as xfree86 4. Can anyone help.. please. BTW has anyone tried using the mdk7.1 rpm from the nvidia website? Does it work OK? Jamie _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
