Hi all
Since 2 weeks ago I've installed mandrake 10.1 and I download the drivers for my video card wich is nvidia fx 5200 .
As I putted on the subject am new on linux and I don't know how to make to work the video card, when I installed linux the kde worked fine but not the 3d so that I need to install the driver. anyway
after install the driver I used the vi to edit the XF86Config how say the manual.
the only thing that I changed is the nv for nvidia. I didn't find the dri or glx to remove.
When i try to use the startx this message apear
Failed to initialize the nvidia kernel module
**************aborting*********
Looking for information en other places someone says that I must update the kernel.
the kernel is 2.6.8.1-10mdk on an i686 /tty1
for the 2.6.8.0-12mdk . if is this the problem pls let me know and the most important who to do it.
I can't get in the Kde so I can't use internet to download it.
If anyone can help I'll be very pleased I know this is easy for many peoply but not for me am new on this and on the information wich is nvidia web is for those who have already exp.
From now thanks for any help
