RE: [LUG] Knoppix libraries (was Knoppix 3.3 download)

["Ray Smith" <rayjsmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a geforce 2 mx which works fine of mandrake 9 & suse 8.2 using the
IA32 linux driver.
I was advised this was correct for athlon XP processors.
I know under windows the 2 mx is identified as a 2mx/440mx so I assume it's
a similar chipset anyway as far as the driver is concerned.

Now halfway through my download anyway :-)

I got a nvidia 440mx working on knoppix 3.2 I originally did the drive dump
with a riva-tnt and then put the nvidia card in after. The problem i had was
not from missing libraries. The main error is from the where nvidia script
looks for a different version gcc then the version used to compile knoppix
kernel - i can't recall the details now. After quite a few attempts I
changed a variable in the nvidia script, all compiled ok and now it works
fine with no problems.

Hers where I got the driver modules.

I am at work now but I can have a look when I get in tonight at home.
