I switched to xfree and now prelink -na gives me a better picture (I can prelink kde now). I still have the win and winex errors though. When I do the real prelink, can I just disregard the erros what wine prelinking throws at me? Is it messing up anything? Will my wine be functional after that? Thanks in advance. -- Viktor On Tue, Jan 07, 2003 at 01:32:54PM -0000, Stefan Jones wrote: > > Yes, I could switch to nv driver, but then I would loose my TV-out for > > watching dvds, and I cannot start any movie in fullscreen with xvideo > > under mplayer (trust me I tried hard) not to mention games... > > > > You can still use the nvidia xfree driver, but you cannot use the nvidia > libGL.so library (opengl-update xfree).
