SuSE 9.0 install

[Peter Amisano]

Has anyone tried installing the nvidia drivers on suse 9.0?

I tried their .run installation file and found the kernel source is not
installed via ftp.

Can I just download and install the kernel source rpm or is there some
re-compiling that needs to take place?

still a newb,

Pete

First i need the acx100 driver. For that, I need "make". 94% of my selected
installs are done, then I need to re-run update. I'm betting I don't have
kernel headers installed, and I'm betting I'll need that to compile the
driver.

Yeah, it was there the day they announced.

suse.com is in Germany. Novell's site appears pretty snappy, although
there's
some sort of problem with the main OOfice file.
