Hi Folks
I have Experienced som problems during the install of The Drivers

i am running Redhat 8.0


I have Tried Both the 3.. driver and the New 4.. drivers but the problem seems to be the same

When i try to start X, my screen gets Covered with alot of Typing, and i cant interact with my system any longer..
only reboot the system by pressing ctrl+alt+delete

I details this i what i did:

Downloaded the 2 drivers GLX & Kernel
in the src.rpm format

rebuileded them with no errors
only the only the one which says that some gl files have been backed up...

afther that i installed them rpm -ivh Nvidia*

and edited my Config and changed what should be changed ..

but it just wont work

i tried looking in the log file for XF.... but there where no Warnings or errors,,, eveything works fine....
