I just put libaudit.so.0 into the googlebar and this was at the top of the list... is this not what you're after?

There's a nice site where you can search for packages and even keywords or included files:

RPMseek.com


You can search RPM packages for the mayor RPM-based distros and even DEB packages.

If you find it here and use either Mozilla/Firefox or Konqueror Yum will start if you select to download the package, so that nothing will get b0rked in your packaging system.

IMHO this site is a must for RPM users, put it into your bookmarks.

That site wasn't much help. Isawl those libaudit.so, but when you click th elink it takes you to another page, that shows the package is really auditlib.so(or something like that,) and that package aparently has the libaudit.so within it. I downloaded the package anyway but to no avail.

In either case, I never noticed(so it was a hugely stupid problem, that was a result of my newbi-ish) that the nvidia driver I had tried to download to fix the probelm was the most up to date. I noticed another page where they had the archive drivers, so I downloaded all of them and then went right down the version numbers. Version 7 had those dependencies, version 6 didn't. Went like a charm.

The system has been up and running throughout the night and morning, and I have opened programs, shut them, moved large files around, opened and shut evolution and other than a bit of a hiccup when first moving large files, but no major problems.

At least not yet.

Thank you all so very much for all the help and advice. Once the small evolution set-up problem is done(not sending mail, but receives it?) I can take this machine offline again. Thanks again for all the great advice.

:D :D :D :D

That's the package : audit-libs-0.7.3-2.i386.rpm

So what you say is nothing new, it was one of the causes I went away from binary distros and changed to Gentoo. There's no such kind of problem as we only use source tarballs and the developers don't mess around building packages with weird dependencies ;)

Nice to read it works. I have been using this card (Geforce FX 5200) since 2003 doing lot's of graphics intensive work rendering stuff and letting the system runnig for weeks and never had any problem until I switched to 7xxx. The key to this strange behavior is that for unknown reason (at least for us customers) the temperature seems to raise until 70-80�C. What I cannot understand is why when the graphics board stops working the case fan does also stop. I can see this because my case fan is mounted in the front of the box some 30 cm from me.

:D

As a windoze user the 7.x driver release didn't work for my old TNT2 video card... install didn't work properly and games were slow with weird artifacts rolled back to 6.x and everything works right :)

Hey, Thanks a lot!
I haven't read that there was also problems with Windows. So it's definitely a bug in the core driver itself.
The more info and complaints the more chances we have of getting the bug fixed.

As far as I know, nVidia recommends using old drivers for obsolete cards such as TNT(2). At least they did a couple of years ago when I was installing drivers for my TNT2 on Winblows 98. It was already archaic technology by then, so I doubt the situation has changed anyhow. :)
