More or less, better information on the differences can be found here: http://www.debian.org/releases/ For the nVidia drivers, you'll want to get your system first working with a 2.4.x kernel. For that, you'll probably want to upgrade your system to the latest stable release (aka woody). Once there, install the nvidia-glx-src and nvidia-kernel-src packages and follow their instructions. -- Jamin W. Collins -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
