I am really stuck on the nvidia drivers install and am starting to wonder whether I need a kernel upgrade (which I don't know how to do).
I think the nvidia driver I built is choking. When I 'startx' I get a blank screen. The last thing I see in 'XFree86.0.log' is: ----- (--) NVIDIA(0): VideoBIOS: 04.25.00.30.00 ----- (full log at end) If I run 'X' as root (which as I understand it is somewhat similar to 'startx'): I get the following: ----- Script started on Wed Aug 20 23:14:27 2003 stokes:/home/michael# X This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.
