GLX Version: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 346.96 nvidia-current is OK for me on mga5-32 As noted in the last IRC meeting, this update needs pushing to clear the way for forthcoming kernel updates. All the Comments above (to which I cannot add, not having nVidia) are favourable; so I am putting in the OKs. Whiteboard:
advisory =>
advisory MGA5-32-OK MGA5-64-OK I noticed the nvidia304-kernel-desktop-latest-304.128-1.mga5.nonfree.i586.rpm (The nvidia304 drivers hadn't been tested). I happen to have an old box that uses them. It worked, though the first boot after installing it was SLOW to get to log-in. Is it downloading something? Seems to be working fine. Visited heavily graphic web-sites and it managed its way through them. nvidia304-kernel-desktop-latest-304.128-1.mga5.nonfree.i586.rpm x11-driver-video-nvidia304-304.128-1.mga5.nonfree.i586.rpm tested out fine. It added the html one was well nvidia304-doc-html-304.128-1.mga5.nonfree.i586.rpm Brian CC:
