Yah, just got back home.

Saw that I couldn't even open my site.

Anyway, I'm transferring to another web host (they're offering free unlimited bandwidth) hope its true.
The first one offered 200 MB bandwidth. I didn't think I was going to need more.

So for the meantime, the site is down. Will upload it after a few minutes.

A suggestion, if I may, that your audience might find helpful regarding the NVIDIA installation and/or editing xorg.conf:

- To prepare for and enable the NvAGP module (in place of agpgart)

1.) Edit /etc/rc.d/rc.modules and comment-out the line "/sbin/modprobe agpgart"

2.) Add agpgart to the hotplug blacklist (so it doesn't get loaded by the hotplugging daemon) by doing #echo agpgart >> /etc/hotplug/blacklist

3.) Remove the agpgart module by doing #rmmod agpgart

4.) Add this line in xorg.conf after Driver "Nvidia":

Option "NvAGP" "1"

(I also add these, but they're purely optional):

Option "RenderAccel" "On"
Option "NoLogo" "On"
Option "IgnoreDisplayDevices" "DFP,TV" (CRT and non-digital LCD)
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT" (CRT and non-digital LCD)

Great site BTW...I learned a good deal about the lilo boot graphic. Thanks!

Nice tip, will include it in the site, in the xorg section.

Just a quick tip for the Nvidia drivers. If you want to keep your existing kernel, and your new kernel nvidia capable, install the nvidia drivers as normal to start with on say kernel 2.4.22 with the command sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6106-pkg1.run, and on your new kernel, run the comand as so:
sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6106-pkg1.run -K. You can now choose either kernel at boot time (assuming both are in your lilo start menu of course), without re-installing.
Great site BTW

Great work insyte. I too am in the middle of writing my own Slackware guide but mine is aimed towards being a source for sources of information and beyond installation tweaking and customisations rather than being another already written guide.

Thus your site will now be mentoned in my documentation as a guide for installing, if thats okay with you of course

Keep up the great work dude.

It's the one I'm using right now. www.atspace.com . Well so far so good. They have some limitations though, 50 MB webspace, max 200 kb filesize (this one is the killer). But its free and you get ftp access.
