Re: [XFree86] Videocard driver

[bill and kary <bill7kary@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

go to nvidia site.  download the linux driver.  it should be 
NVIDIA-*****.run.  bring down your X server.  type sh 
./NVIDIA-*****.run.  Follow the prompts.  You will then put nvidia 
instead of nv in the driver section of the XF86Config file.  After you 
restart X you will find that your display will be much faster, have more 
available resolutions, and be 3D enabled (Tux racer anyone?).  Good luck.
