I've recently obtained a Dell Inspiron 8200 which I would like to get
KDE up and running on. I currently have Red Hat 8 installed without
flaw. It detects my GeForce 4 Go card, but does not detect my monitor.
No matter what monitor I select from the Dell laptop list, nothing
works. The 'Generic' monitor option works but it sticks to a 800x600
resolution which is simply NOT an option. I've found out that NVIDIA
does offer drivers for Linux 7.3 and above, with some pretty reasonable
install details. However, as migrating user from FreeBSD, I have NO
idea how RPM works. I understand ports/packages from FreeBSD very well
and its extremely easy, but my RPM attempts don't seem to work.
Here are the NVIDIA links:
http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_1.0-3123
http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86_40/1.0-3123/README
If someone could help me get this running it would be greatly
appreciated.
