Can't install nVidia Driver on Fedora Core 5
I am running Fedora Core 5 on an Intel Pentium IV system. The system also has a 64 Megabyte nVidia GForce 3 video card.
I updated to kernel 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 and I downloaded the latest nVidia drivers (version 1.0-8774) When I run the installation program for the driver I get the following warning. WARNING: You appear to be using a modular Xorg release, but nvidia-installer was unable to determine the correct X library installation path with the `pkg-config` utility. Please install the Xorg SDK/development package for your distribution. I'm not sure where I'm supposed to find and install this package. So, I decided to ignore the warning and continued with the installation of the driver. This results in the following error output starting the X Windows server: X Window System Version 7.0.0 Release Date: 21 December 2005 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.0 Build Operating System:Linux 2.6.9-34.ELsmp i686Red Hat, Inc.

What needs to be done to address these warning and errors so I can run X Windows again? |
