If there are two things in this apartment that I don't like, that would first be the dog upstairs which barks at 5 AM almost every morning, and the fact that UPS almost never deliver things on our door. They never bother to check if we are in. The SuSE people were very kind to send us the Professional version of SuSE 8.1, but unfortunately, I received it 10 days later after it arrived in the apartment's complex. But now we got it here, we gave it a spin for almost a week, and here is what we think about it.

Hello people.
If you have problems with installing and get running
Nvidia binary drivers with OpenGL support (many
unresolved symbols and vise versa) you can download source rpm of driver you want
from www.nvidia.com and compile it yourself (it takes one minute).
Trouble with Nvidia modules occurs because your platform have at least one different from platform on which they compiled:
- kernel version
- gcc version
- CPU model (Intel, AMD, ..)
..
From other hand i think is always better to compile yourself kernel from clean source tarball (not use one heavilly patched by RedHat, Mandrake, Suse ..)
to get biggest stability and perfomance. In addition
if you have problem with patched gcc-2.96/3.2 it better to turn to most stable gcc-2.95.3 .
