Hello, I want to know if there is a TV turner usb that works in linux, I heard that avermedia is supported but I would like to confirm it. Thanks.

Hello, I have a Pinnacle MovieBox usb and I want to use it with linux but I don´t find a driver to make it run. I need some help. Thanks for all.

Hello, I installed Mandrake 8.0 but when I try to change to XFree86 4.0 it happens that I have to choose my graphic card, in the cards I can´t find GeForce4 and the other kinds of GeForce don´t work. I tried to install nvidia driver but it only works if you have XFree86 4.0 running. Has anyone this card running in Mandrake 8.0? I need help Thanks

Thanks for all your answers but I could´n solve it. I will try with Mandrake 8.0

I did a dmesg and I found the next output: Linux agpgart interface v0.100 © Dave Jones agpgart: Detected VIA KT266/KY266x/KT333 chipset agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 439M agpgart: AGP aperture is 64M @ 0xe0000000 nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel. 0: nvidia: Can't find an IRQ for your NVIDIA card! 0: nvidia: Please check your BIOS settings. 0: nvidia: [Plug & Play OS ] should be set to NO 0: nvidia: [Assign IRQ to VGA] should be set to YES 0: nvidia: loading NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module 1.0-5336 Wed Jan 14 18:29:26 PST 2004 Perhaps my card is not detected, how can I change the IRQ configuration? I checked BIOS settings and were ok

I tried that with the versions 6111 and 6629, and I got an error: Fatal Error inserting NVIDIA (...) no such device. With 5336 I can load the module but when I change to my username and execute startx I get the same problem: (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device! Perhaps is a kernel problem, should I download a nvidia kernel or it´s better to compile it from my kernel source?

I did all you said in the last post but I´m not sure to have installed IA32 drivers. How can I check it?

My card is NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX 440

I managed to install 6111 writing --kernel-name='2.6.8.1-12mdk', but nothing has changed, allways the same error.

I get this error installing 6111: "Your kernel was configured to include a rivafb support as a loadable kernel module" and then an error related to the kernel source. I have 2.6.8.1-12 and installing 5336 was ok so I don´t know if I need to install another kernel. I did a lsmod and there wasn´t rivafb module so I think is a kernel problem.

My monitor is LG Flatron F700B, I executed XFdrake and it´s not in the list of monitors. I selected custom with Horz. freq. 30-70 and Vert. freq. 50-160 as the monitor´s manual recommends. I´ve try with different resolutions but always the same error: (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device! (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting *** With the driver "nv" I don´t have any problems.

I have installed 2.3.8.1-12.mdk and I have the same version of the kernel-source.

Hello, I´ve installed NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1.mun in Mandrake 10.1 sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1.mun I wrote "nvidia" instead of "nv" in XF86Config Here is a piece of the log file: (II) Setting vga for screen 0.
