I wonder if any list driver might be able to lend or do me a copy of disk number 5 of suse 8.2. My disk has become corrupt. On installing a couple of days ago I received error on the last set of packages from this disk and couldn't install them after trying to mount if after either. Examining the disk shows the dye seems to be worn. If anyone could help me out that would be great. On the matter of nvidia drivers I tried to donload the nvidia 3d drivers via online update which appeared to install. All apps that use hardware acceleration tell me that I don't have hardware acceleration enabled but I I continue anyway they run but seem very slow. Given the problems with the disk I installed suse 8.1 and tried the same thing with sus YOU update but switching to the nvidia driver instead of the nv one gave me error message driver installed but no screens configure. Downloading and installing nvidia's own driver and gives me 3d acceleration ok but I cannot then run sax2 to alter setting. Not a problem as I can edit the X config file by hand but not as handy (no pun intended) Any ideas as the PC I am using had 8.2 installed and I purchased it from a freind recently. The only thing that has changed is a new hard disk hence the reinstall. He had no problem donloading the driver using yast2. Ray --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
