Hi,
i kinda got them to work on
2.6.11-rc1-V0.7.35-00
I needed two patches called:
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-6629-1165235.diff.txt
and
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-6629-1171869.diff.txt
(attached)
With these patches applied i got a black screen which was cured by
adding:
Option "NvAGP" "2"
to this section of my XF86Config-4:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Generic Video Card"
# Driver "nv"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NvAGP" "2"
EndSection
This makes 2D ops a bit slower than usually, but i can frag again :)
Have fun
Flo
