Nvidia Website


I have a problem with the nvidia website. I can't load it.
No matter the browser (I try Knoqueror 2.2.2,Netscape 6.22 and an old Mozilla) I can just get a stupid timeout. I know this site isn't down cuz I can ping it. Strangely I tried to load it on another linux box running the same (older!!) broswer and it was just fine

I need this site cuz my card is a nvidia (YEAH I know it su*** for nix). I already get my drivers from a friend but I think they are really old.

Anyone heard of this problem before or have a tips why I can't load this site?

The site works fine for me as well...and the latest nvidia drivers are excellent, IMO they have better support than any other card.

I have to agree - I think the NVIDIA drivers are fantastic - absolutely no problem running any OpenGL stuff - lovely frame rates....
