I just installed Red Hat 7.3 on my new Inspiron 8200 just 2 weeks ago. You have download and install the RPMs from nVidia and then tweak your X config file. >From http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_1.0-3123 I downloaded and installed: NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-3123.i386.rpm NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.rh73up_2.4.18_10.i386.rpm The monitor I chose was "Dell 1400X Laptop Display Panel" Then as per the README I edited the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file and replaced the "nv" driver with "nvidia", "glx" wass listed in the module section and made sure that "dri" and "GLcore" was commented out in the module section. Did a startx then now it runs real sweet at a 1400x1050 in 16bpp resolution. > 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. So what did you do? What were the results? -- Regards, +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Peter Kiem .^. | E-Mail : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | Zordah IT /V\ | Mobile : +61 0414 724 766 | | IT Consultancy & /( )\ | WWW : www.zordah.net | | Internet Hosting ^^-^^ | ICQ : "Zordah" 866661 | +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
