Geforce MX440 SuSE
I have a Geforce MX440 and recently got SuSE Linux 8.1.
I unfutunatly own a WinModem so I coudn't use the automatic update, so I'm using the unofficial one's. So (on windows) I visited nvidias websight and downloaded the 2 following files NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-3123.suse81.i586.rpm NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.suse81.i586.rpm however when i run any of these files YaST tells me that 1 error accured, I view the log and I see sumut like this? NVIDIA_GLX I dont thing this is ver descriptive. So what should I do to get it all working :confused: |
download the tar.gz files instead of the precompiled rpm's. it's a lot more reliable.
|
OK, but will I have to compile it my self. I'm a compleate newbi 24hr user. How do I install I "liked" (to say they didn't work) those rpm's.

Have a look at the README file at the nvidia linux download page, it has newbie friendly instructions on how to install from tarballs.
