AFAIK in stable you have prebuild module packages.
There are several inter-related nvidia packages and then a command to set-up the nvidia driver (I forget which command, I ran it once a year ago). You have to use a package search tool to find them all, install them, then update man-db (run the cron-job manually), then apropos nvidia. I found it very helpful to get X running using nv first (as a fall-back). If nv doesn't work on your hardware, get it running with vesa. Then copy /etc/X/xorg.conf to xorg.conf.nv or .vesa Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
