You need a later version of XFree that supports your card. With Redhat you can either go ahead and install using the text installer:
boot: text And once installed download and update X with the appropiate drivers for you video card or I can just recommend getting a later version of Redhat if that is what you prefer, maybe 7.3 or later as 7.0 is outdated and not a very stable release of Redhat. |
You should also get the linux nvidia drivers from there website. Instructions to install them can be found here are many many other places.
