chalex20 Posted November 1, 2002 Report Share Posted November 1, 2002 Thanks a lot! Finally, I managed to install the nividia drivers. But, how do I remove the damn nvidia logo, which is displayed during every boot-sequence? This is from my XF86Config-4 Section "Device" Identifier "RIVA TNT2" VendorName "Unknown" BoardName "Unknown" Driver "nvidia" Option "NoLogo" "True" That's what you need EndSection They have some littlle :) README both at their site and within the .tar.gz or .rpm. You may learn all the options, issues, tricks etc from there. More than that, THEIR tutorial ( they do have one, on the download page ) MANDATES reading this README as one of the installation steps.

If you recompile your kernel, update your kernel, or use Cooker, or a distro that isn't listed on NVidia's site, you WILL HAVE TO RECOMPILE THE DRIVER. Period. Might just as well do it the right way, the first time, every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest daimoni Posted November 1, 2002 Report Share Posted November 1, 2002 >Yes, which is the correct way of doing it. well, installing from .tar.gz works for every distro :-) there really is not THE right way to do it. each tutorial which just works is a good donation for linux community, no matter which way it works.
