NVidia GeForce 2 and XFree86
Hi,
I have a GeForce 2 video card and Debian 2.2r2, and cannot start X windows at
all. I have been looking at some of the previous postings about these cards,
but am confused. I looked at the instructions on the NVidia site, and noted
that I needed to upgrade my XFree86. I looked at the XFree86 site and saw that
4.1.0 supports my card. I have upgraded to 4.1.0 (apt-get x-window-system from
Woody), but still can't get X to start.
Do I still need to install the NVidia Kernel component or gtx, or both?
If so, do I need to recompile my kernel or downgrade my gcc (the x-window-system
seems to have upgraded my gcc, so is not the same version that compiled my kernel)?
If so, how?
Otherwise, what changes do I need to make to my XF86Config-4?
Thanks. Any help much appreciated.
