NVIDIA & RedHat 9 Users
« on: 27 April 2003, 11:19 »
hi all,

Is there any boost in graphics performance with the official nVIDIA drivers(downloaded from nvidia website) on RedHat 9? Does GNOME and KDE display and run applications better and faster?

thanks,

Yes nVidia drivers are much better.
Contains scenes of mild peril.

I personally could not get the new drivers to work on my Red Hat 9 box. When i changed the x86 config it gave me random characters when i restarted X. I said fuck it and switch to slackware and like that alot more. Also i got a GF4 mx440
