Hi: with amd64 lenny, i have installed the nvidia driver (OpenGL 2.1.2 NVIDIA 173.14.04) for a GeForce 6600?PCI?SSE2 card along "the Debian way", according to the Lennart Sorensen recipe), with additional GLSL support for some scientific graphics.
When my wife attempts to explore the museum Louvre (http://musee.louvre.fr/expo-imaginaire/escalierdesambassadeurs/en/index2.html) in 3D rendering, the system warns that 3D is not supported, needing an additional plugin. Today, no specification about the kind of plugin was revealed, while a couple of days ago - on the same attempts - the system specified "nVidia plugin". Today I tried to see the plugin by downloading it, though iceweasel answered that there is no suitable plugin available. I was acting as user. Aside the obvious implications from what i said above, my question is whether with the installation of the nVidia driver "the Debian way" it safe to download plugins related to graphics and if such plugins are installable by users (my wife has access to the computer with her username and i should avoid to harm the driver installation). thanks francesco pietra -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
