  1. Ok, I installed the Kernel-source then rebooted into init level 3, installed the drivers and it works nicely Step by step 1. Download official nVidia drivers 2. Download matching kernel-source to your Kernel version 3. as root, edit init level in /etc/inittab to 3 from 5 4. Reboot 5. login as root and run nVidia.mun file 6. after completion, type init 5 to go back to a GUI 7. Change /etc/inittab back to original value 8. Tada
  2. Ok, after doing some reading around, it seems I need to download the kernel source also, Im downloading the RPM currently for kernel (2.6.14-1.1653_FC4) and will update when I complete this and attempt to install the GFX drivers.
  3. Ok, I set the runlevel to 3 and log-in as root, I start the .mun file, I get the accept screen, I accept, then it asks to connect to FTP which it does then it asks to attempt to build a driver for this version of linux in which it fails. It is a PNY Geforce 6600GT running on my own custom built machine (32-bit). Any help would be greatly appreciated Dustin
  4. I have tryed multiple guides on how to get them to work but I have made no progress (http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/Fedora_Core_4_Linux_Installation_Notes#nVidia: ) and the official nVidia instructions but still nothing. Does anyone have any tips and/or a rebuilt/RPM of the drivers or am I not going to be able to use my GFX card with drivers?
  5. Solved, used an above guide that tells to use the i686 and the i386 RPM's, rebooted and it worked
  6. I too am trying to install this same card, I have the H/W version B1 and the F/Ware is 2.11 (apparently supported). I've tryed many ideas, using yum and building source packages and was going to use a few RPM's if I could find the correct one/had all dependencys. Can someone give me a super-laymans terms guide on how-to do this. I'm currently (temporarily) connecting thru an iBook using Connection Sharing (wired)
