hi everyone.
easy question here.. trying to download a nvidia driver for my g-force 4 mx420 graphics card and it shows 4 different unix versions
my question is wich one relates to slack 9.0
Linux IA32
Linux AMD64
LinuxIA64
Free BSD

and do i even need a driver, or is "xfree86setup" enough to play windows games with wine?? like open gl, directx etc.....
thanks!!!!

I posted in your other post about making sure you have this.

Yes you need this driver to take advantage of your video card.

Most likely you need the "LinuxIA32" version. That is for standard Intel 32-bit processors (and AMD clones). The *64 ones are for 64-bit processors, which are pretty rare. You would know if you had one and you would be bragging about it.
