Hi all,

I successfully installed the new NVIDIA (4191) driver on my RH 8 computer. I had upgraded via "up2date" to kernel 2.4.18-19.8.0. To make 4191 drivers to work with this kind of setup, i had to install my current kernel header from RH 8.0 and do a "rpmbuild --rebuild NVIDIA_kernel...". It work good, but I see a 2D slowdown and frequent freeze when using the "File Manager" that come with Gnome (dont know the name), it's the icons on the desktop "personnal folder".

If anyone can help me with that, it will very appreciate.

Thank you in advance.
