Help installing Nvidia driver...
 

Hey, I am running the 2.4.27 kernel (ugrading soon) and am having trouble installing the Nvidia driver. I got the run file off their site but when I type sh NVidiaxxxxxx.run it eventually gives me an error saying that it can't find the correct kernel-source tree. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Please tell me the full commands because I am still very new to linux! Thanks in advance!

The problem is that you haven't got the Linux source. Get it by doing an apt-get install kernel-source or someting like that (do an apt-cache search source to find it). Then it should work :)

You need to install the kernel source or headers for the kernel you are running using apt/synaptic. Synaptic maybe better if you are new to linux.

I did apt-get install kernel-source 2.4.27 but I don't know what to do from there?

You need to extract that tarball into the /usr/src directory.
Then create a symlink named 'linux' to the kernel-source folder.

Also, be sure you installed the applicable kernel header package.
