Hello there,
I am trying to get my Shuttle 64 XPC to work with Suse 9 64-bit. The problem I am having is with nvidia onboard NIC. I tried to compile the source RPM from nvidia website but it seems that the drivers are written specifically for 32-bit only so the compilation failed.
Does anybody know if there is a support available for nvidia NIC for 64-bit platform?

Any information or pointer will be helpfull.

Thanks...

Use 2.4.23 or 2.6.0-test11 - they include a clean reverse-engineered nvnet driver called forcedeth which will work on 64bit platforms. See this thread for assistance, if you need it:
