I'm trying to get the nvidia drivers to work.
I;ve just done a fresh install of Mandrake 7.2.
Mandrake is telling me that XFree86 4.0.1 is installed:
rpm -q XFree86
% XFree86-4.0.1.mdk
but on starting X it clearly says it is version 3.3.6 - which doesn't
recognize "Modules" or "Drivers".
After trawling for a while the problem seems to be that XF86_SVGA is being
executed in the 'X' startup script.
I've now removed the 3.3.6 packages but the startup scripts are broken.
What files should be executed in what order for X 4.0.1?
Thanks
Carl
