well im new in Linux, Totaly new, just installed Suse yesterday , The thing Im wondering about is that I downloaded the Nvidia File so my Suse could support my Geforce4, but I didn't downloaded it from Linux because I got no internet access installed for my linux so I downloaded from my Windows is there anyway I could access this file from windows and get it to run on my Linux?

suse rpms here, so i assume by what your saying, is that your dual booting, so download this in windows, fire up linux, mount the windows drive, and then copy it over..

What do you you mean by mount the windows drive?

I have suse 8.2, NVIdIA nForce, have downloaded drivers and put them on a floppy disc.

how do i install it??

have looked at NVIDIA's instructions but don't understand them.

sorry to ask such a basic question, I really haven't a clue

(ps picked up an old pc with linux only, given up with the old laptop for the moment)

thanks for your help.........

I've sorted it!!

1) get your internet working as first priority (this involved getting the network card driver from nvidia - only 50kb or so)
2) download the updates from suse (YOU)
3) it will do the rest for you!!!

I am v happy now!
