mandrake 10 nvidia drivers and winmodem drivers
Does anyone know if the mandrake 10 powerpack has the nvidia fx5200 drivers ?
Also are there drivers for the windmodems ? I am using the downloaded version and there are no drivers for nvidia, If there are on the commercial version I will purchase immediately Thanks in advance.. mikeymouse |
Reading directly from the box.
Automatic 3d acceleration for: Nvidia (GeForce & Nforce) Chances are you'll still have to configure XF86Config-4 file to get them to work. I did. Reading from the box again. Internet Connection: Internet wizard that supports classic modems, DSL, cable and USB modems - except WinModems. It's still worth buying - the manuals are well worth having, there's loads of extra software etc etc. |
Powerpack definately has the nvidia drivers
Pongmaster, didn`t the nvidia stuff get configured at install? Powerpack also has heaps of extra stuff that you don`t have to go looking for like flash and java. Just go to the mandrake website and have a look at all the packages in the powerpack edition. |

When I rebooted the first time I got a black screen, then dropped to a command prompt. Did a bit of XF & modprobe tweaking and it rebooted fine. |
As far as I know the Nvidia drivers supplied with the boxed Mandrake are the same as those you can download from the Nvidia website, so personally I would not buy the boxed copy just for the graphics drivers.
