Just ran Mandrake Update........327mg. Um....thats half a cd ins't it?

No I promised.............................

I promise not to add a cooker package to my shiny brand new 10.0. Nuthin but mandrake updates. ( of course that just on that partition)

Ok lets remember that you are dealing with the Linux challenged. I installed the 2.6 source matching the kernel I have running. I used the minion patches (if you ask me the steps I used slowly I'll try to reply in an intellegent manner). Finally end up at a make install and Im now using the 2.6 kernel with the nvidia driver.

results of glxgears:

32094 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6418.800 FPS

37356 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7471.200 FPS

37350 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7470.000 FPS

37341 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7468.200 FPS

37315 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7463.000 FPS

37340 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7468.000 FPS

37364 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7472.800 FPS

37367 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7473.400 FPS

37352 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7470.400 FPS

37370 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7474.000 FPS

37344 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7468.800 FPS

I frickin amaze myself sometimes.

Got cooker running with Kernel-2.6.0-0.1mdk.

Waiting to find a kernel-source file to load the nvidia driver with.

Thank you Ravage. That worked!

Im running Mandrake 9.1. I'll give it a try , thanks for responding.

Verifying archive integrity... All good.

Im lost...any suggestion. Please remember your dealin with the ignert.

Im experiencing the same thing only with more frequency. Ive checked all my network settings, but to no avail. Ive double checked the connection (cable charter pipeline) with my windows partition and all is well. With mandrake 9.0 it is droppin my connection about every 15 minutes.
