I installed the NVIDIA 1.0-5336 driver on kernel 2.4.20-8 and it worked great! Using Red Hat Network, I updated my kernel to 2.4.20-30.9 and rebooted only to be told that:
(EE) NVIDIA(0) Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable config I re-installed the driver under the new kernel only to be told: unable to determine the NVIDIA kernel module filename Can anyone help? X-Series. [OS] Red Hat 9 Linux 2.4.20-30.9, NVIDIA 1.0-5336, Video Card: Asus V9520 TD FX5200 |

Install driver (making sure it either compiles the new one or has one prebuilt). Verify that the module is placed in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/video
run the command: depmod Then try: modprobe nvidia |

If you upgrade the kernel, you must upgrade your kernel source as well.
Sometimes one must do the following: cd /usr/src/linux cp /boot/config-2.4.22-xxxxxxx ./.config make dep sh nvidia-installer5336xxxxx.run -K let us know if this work
