Trying to install correct drivers for Suse 10.3


Im running a 4200+ x64 processor.
Geforce 6100 on board video
Suse 10.3

I believe I have found the correct drivers http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_d...100.14.19.html

My problem is that the Suse 10.3 install guide is not accurate to what I see in My YaST . It says I should see ; YaST -> Software -> Installation Source -> Add

Protocol: HTTP
Server Name: : download.nvidia.com
Directory on Server: /opensuse/10.3

to add the NVIDIA ftp server as additional installation source.
Now use

YaST -> Software -> Software Management

to install the NVIDIA driver. Select the following packages:

x11-video-nvidiaG01
nvidia-gfxG01-kmp-"kernel-flavor"


Is there something Im missing. I'm not seeing anything like that. I really want the 3d working.

Thanks in advance

Figured it out.. The instructions are close but not entirely accurate.
