I just built a frontend (SD only) with R6 and I installed using the VESA driver, unfortunately I can't install the nVidia driver 71.86. when I do a pacman -S nvidia-71xx it returns that it requires kernel26<2.6.28 which is the current version of the kernel.

Is there a way to get this driver installed?

Thanks

Girkers,

Kernel < 2.6.28 or kernel <= 2.6.28? If the former, then please open a bug report on flyspray. If the latter, you can try to force it by adding -f to your pacman command.

Hello,

I just hit this with R6 as well... Can you tell me which source you added so I can try to install the older TNT drivers?

Regards,

-Johnny

I actually never got around to doing it, I just went and bought a 6800AGP video card, sorry I can't help.
