Edit inittab? That can't be right.
Here's how to install the nVidia drivers:
1. Open console, type "su" and then your root password when prompted.
2. Type "telinit 3". KDE will shut down and you'll be at a full-screen console.
3. Go to the directory where you downloaded the nVidia file. (Like if it's in /home/foo, type "cd /home/foo" and press enter)
4. Type "sh NV" and then press Tab to let it finish the filename automatically. Press enter.
5. This part is easy, just follow the instructions on screen.
6. Once you're back at the console, you'll have to edit XF86Config. If you want to edit this in graphics mode (easier), ok. Type "telinit 5".
7. Log in and open KWrite (or something) as root. (Meaning, open a console in super user mode (that's a menu choice somewhere) and type "kwrite" (or whatever) and press enter.)
8. The file to open is /etc/X11/XF86Config.
9. Find the line:
quote:
Driver "svga"
(it may say something else like "nv")
10. Change it to
quote:
Driver "nvidia"
11. Save and exit the file.
12. Log out and back in. You should see the NVIDIA logo during the logout.
Done!
