[gentoo-user] attempt at using new nvidia drivers

[maxim wexler]

Hi everybody,

When I ran the program from

http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_nforce_1.0-0306.html

a ncurses-type window opens and offers two
pre-selected choices: install the audio drivers,
install the network drivers. I require neither but
can't de-select them. Can toggle from one to other but
that's it. Other than [OK] beneath the choices(?) and
the title there's nothing else
to be seen.

What now?

Pressing ENTER while the option you don't want is selected will remove the x 
and deselect it. However I have to ask--if you need require neither, why are 
you installing them? Perhaps you are, instead, looking for the nVidia 
graphics drivers located at 
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-7676.html ?
