chin808 Posted March 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 Allright then buddy... I actually managed to suck it off the cd somehow and I went and compiled the kernel for my new nvidia drivers. Do you know where I go from vi /ect/x11/xf86config-4 ??? I was followiong Motts instructions in the FAQ but I got a different screen than the one I expected. I jus wanna get the driver working now... btw, awesome firefox icon, I have been hunting for some cool icons because my fb has been replaced!
