The nv driver should work with your nvidia card for 2D graphics. If you want to do any gaming or anything that requires 3D graphics you'll need to install the nvidia kernel module. Those modules are available in etch and sid in the non-free and contrib repo's, look for nvidia* If your running sarge you need to build those modules yourself, it's easy to do if you have module-assistant installed. First run "m-a prepare" and m-a will prepare your box to build those modules and then "m-a a-i nvidia" to build those modules, create an nvidia*.deb and install it. Once that is done run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 (or xorg) and choose the nvidia driver. > Alan Ianson wrote: > > On Thu January 4 2007 19:34, Danesh Daroui wrote: > >> Hi all, > >> > >> I think I have selected the graphic card's vendor of my system > >> incorrectly during Debian installation.
