Mr X just got started on mandrakelinux 10 and needs help with it.

<< < (2/3) > >>

MrX:
oops i think you referred me to the wrong file. isnt it xf86config-4 ? thats what the other guide said. i coundnt find a word called "driver svga" on the xfconfig , just settings for my moniter. but when i opend up the xfconfig-4, i found this:
Section "Device"
    Identifier "device1"
    VendorName "nVidia Corporation"
    BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce2 DDR (generic)"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "DPMS"

but, the driver was already named nvidia. it did it for me then? ne ways i dont need to save it (no changes made) so im off to step 12, log out and back in.

MrX:
i dont know how to do step 12 right. i went to the log out option, and it asked me restart, end session, shut down. so i went to the one most logically related to a log out, end session. no nvdia logo. what am i doing wrong?

That patch isn't really needed if you use the latest driver.

I dumped 2.6 for the nVidia driver... oh well, no need to compile a new kernel while everything's working
