I'm having a problem with installing the latest Nvidia driver (IA32
edition, version 1.0-5336), to get 3D acceleration working on my Laptop.
When I try to launch the shell script to install it from a terminal I
recieve an error, telling me that i haven't got the package for the
right platform and that it cannot continue. But surely I have the right
package? If I'm running an Intel P4 with hyperthreading then I'm going
to need th 32-bit package and not the 64-bit package. The AMD package is
also clearly not going to be compatible.
My laptop's got an Nvidia Geforce FX Go5200 in it, as well as a Pentium
4 3 gig processor with hyperthreading. I've also downloaded and
installed the modified Red Hat kernel with the 8 stack enabled on it for
SMP from
http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/full/downloads-fc2-kernel-i686.php
. The Kernel is 2.6.5-1.358smp .
Any ideas on this one?
