Guest kuchwas Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 I've been using the nvidia drivers for a few months on 2.6 by downloading the patches from www.minion.de. Never knew there were built packages. I've been on 5328 for the third day today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidzoo Posted December 25, 2003 Report Share Posted December 25, 2003 If these packages mean you don't need the patch that kuchwas mentioned, I may have to upgrade to 2.6 over my work weekend (hey, maybe tomorrow at work if I download everything I need tonight) We'll see.

So you ran them against a 2.6 kernel and they worked eh? I haven't had a chance yet, the last 2.6 I played with was the minion patchy way. sh NV<tab> is much easier I'm sure. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted December 25, 2003 Report Share Posted December 25, 2003 Yes. I'm running the cooker with 2.6 (see sig)Originally I couldn't get Nvidia to work, but these programs work just fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bvc Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 whahoooo!!!! been trying for days to get nvidia on gentoo so I decided to wait til I had gnome-2.5.1/kernel-2.6.0/XFree86-4.4beta. Did the patch thing and it wouldn't work. I was not supprised. These worked .....running the new! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzatch Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Works fine. The new Nvidia run packages are an easy install anymore. Just half the steps of the old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
