I just recently tried to get XFree86 4.1 working with the
newest nVidia drivers (1.0-3123).  I'm running a custom
2.4.19 kernel and compiled the nVidia kernel drivers
against that.  Seemed to work fine and the NVdriver modules
installed ok (after some troubleshooting since I keep my
kernel source elsewhere than /usr/src).  Got the rpm
package for the nVidia GLX driver and installed that with
alien. X starts fine now (at first run it COMPLETELY
crashed... couldn't even do <C>-<M>-Bksp... found out later
that was because I needed to restart the system first when
changing from non AGP drivers to AGP drivers).
Anyhow, the skinny is that 2-D works fine but 3-D (in quake
3 at least) doesn't do texturing (I assume) correctly at
all.  I get a strange sci-fi like image of everything.
/var/log/XFree86.0.log doesn't show any errors that would
give any insight, and the nVidia FAQ/Troubleshoot doesn't
specifically help either.
Any suggestions?
Also, X takes a lot longer to start up now.
