which nvidia driver do I need 32 bit or 64 bit?
 

Hey linux folks,

I have a 64 bit CPU i.e EM64T, but I'm running a 32 bit distro
called arch linux.

which nvidia driver do I need, 32 bit or 64 bit? I'm guessing 64bit, but the distro is 32bit.

Any comments will be appreciated.

PS. The card I purchased is a Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 AGP

If the distro you are running is 32 bit, then you most likely need the 32 bit driver (like the other drivers in your kernel).

Thanks reddazz for your prompt reply. :)
