I did read your post. I did that. I rebooted, No splash screen.

startx -> Garbage filled screen -> No ctrl-alt-Backspace/Delete

Need to do a manual reboot.

What I did was,

chmod 777 Nvidia---driversblah
./Nvidia---driversblah
Agree to disclaimer
No to interface
Ok to No interface made
---Program installs
---Worked, now read /usr/share/docs/Nvidia-GLX-version/README
cat /usr/share/doc...../README
pico XF86Config Uncomment Load glx. Driver "nv" to "nvidia" uncomment VideoRam 13xxxx
Reboot (to make sure)
startx
----garbage

I tried /usr/lib/svgalib/accel and it tells me I have no acceleration
I try testaccel, it works fine on mode (24: 1024x7**x64K)


Nothing works damn it! I swear, Geforce is the worst gpx card in the world.
