Hmm okies. i'll try that tomorrow morning,

I've run this NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4363.run early on, it didn't seem works due to kernel.

Right, i just got nvidia installed without any problem but, must have match a kernel version.

to get kernel version use:
$ uname -r
2.4.22-1.2149.nptl,

look in the site http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/dist/fc1/nvidia-graphics/
find the match of your kernel, you can download the rpm from there or, myself i click [more] it open more info. it shows you in very light green box. under NVIDIA graphics architecture support. there's a link. go there and downloas the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-*-pkg*.run

then install the .run
# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5328-pkg1.run

my current kernel is 2.4.22-1.2149.nptl, then i went to nvidia-graphics-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2149.nptl-1.0_5328-45.rhfc1.at.i686.rpm - Kernel module for NVIDIA graphics, and click [more] then went to http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-5328 and download the .run file. and now my nvidia works biggrin.gif
