Re: GeForce2 MX, drivers, X4...
I installed X4.0.2 and the nVidia drivers 0.9-5. Just take your time
and follow the steps in the docs that came with those packages and
things should work. If you have an Asus P5A (what I have) or anything
with an ALi chipset, there are a few extra steps, but they work
nicely.
As of version 0.9-4, they have support for the GeForce MX chip.
I didn't get the errors you got. I'd suspect you have some missing
libraries with your compiler.
The folks in #nvidia on irc.openprojects.net are a big help, BTW.
