Downloading NVIDIA drivers!
« Reply #15 on: 14 September 2002, 04:08 »
Void Main and Karma,

I did all of that.  I worked very hard and tried every trick in the book and the newsgroups.  My linux box still froze multiple times a day.  Thank goodness I installed ext3.  After a week I decided that DRI just wasnt'worth it.  

Some people don't have problems with them, but alot of others do.  I posted to the alt.os.linux group and got several replies from people who had the same experience.
In brightest day, in darkest night, no evil shall escape my sight....
