If your trying to have the NVIDIA drivers work in both 2.4 and 2.6 on the same
machine it's easy enoughyou just need to use the same version of the kernel
driver. eg 5328.
you simply install the 2.4 one which updates glx to 5328 version.
Then extract the source for the header for the kernel drive

Hello,
At last, I've come around to upgrading my kernel, after
upgrading all the other applications to 9.2 when it came
out. I got a fright when mandrake wouldn't boot (actually,
it did but X didn't start, which comes to the same for me).
My lilo.conf was a bit mixed up, but I managed to boot
