Meeting reminder [now video card topic]

[Tommie Giles]

Hi!

The newest rev of Mandrake (7.2) apparently runs the GForce fine (it's listed 
under supported hardware at http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fhard.php3

Do you recall which rev of Mandrake you are attempting to install?

Otherwise there is a NHF on this particular topic here: 
http://www.linuxnewbie.org/nhf/intel/distros/mandrake/mdk_nvidia.html

If you need Mandrake 7.2 lemme know, and I'll bring them by. I have them on 
cd's somewhere...

Hope ths helps!
