RH 7.2 on Inspiron 8100. No Xwindow
 

Others had success with this, I now am close but not there yet. I downloaded the rpms from NVIDIA: NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-2802.rh72up.i386.rpm and NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-2802_rh72up.i386.rpm. Did XConfigurator with the intructions of selecting Dell 1600 and the replacement of "nv" by "nvidia". I also removed "dri" and "glcore". Still I get (EE) NVIDIA0(0): Failed to initialize the NVdriver kernel module! then the "no screens found". Help!

When you installed Winlinux, did you install the kernel (not nvidia's but the system) source, headers etc...? Also, is Load "glx" in your XF86Config/-4 file? I ran into this problem myself after recompiling my kernel and while I did a make mrproper, it couldn't find the correct headers specifically version.h...There are a ton of questions just like this one at the nvidia/linux drivers page forum. That's where I found most of my answers since it was specific to their drivers. If everything is installed succefully and the config file is edited correctly, it should in theory be fine. So there must be a config error somewhere. Post your XF86config-4 file for us if you'd like, or XF86Config if no -4 file.

I am posting both the X86Config-4:

People, nevermind but; the XWindow I got is about 6"X5" in an 15" laptop display. Can anybody help? I downloaded from the NVIDIA site the kernel and GLX.

Never mind, problem is solved.
