Ok, I am lost. I have searched and I tried the instructions at the NVIDIA website; ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-7174/README.txt and I can't get my 3D card working. I downloaded the binary file and it installed fine but what am I missing?

Well, rather than using the NVIdia installer, just:
Code: |
emerge nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx
|
Then edit your xorg.conf appropriately. If you get stuck, search the wiki (or here for that matter ) _________________ Kris Edwards
