If you did not install the kernel source archive when you installed your
system, please do the following:

   1) Insert Xandros Installation CD
   2) Launch an administrator console (Launch | Applications | System |
Administrator Tools | Console)
   3) Type the following commands:
   
        cd /disks/Removeable/cdrom.1/dists/xandros1.0/main/binary-i386/base
	dpkg -i xandros-kernel-source-2.4.19_1.0.4-1_all.deb
	

Note: the file NVIDIA-Linux-x81-1.0-4363.run comes from nvidia's own
website.  See: http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp .
Select "Graphics Driver", "GeForce and TNT", "Linux IA32".  NVidia's current
release is 4363.  If you get a newer release, please let me know if these
steps still work.

Note: If you need to add more lines in step 5 than what are listed below,
please let me know and i'll add them to this document.

Post subject: Nvidia drivers 1.0-4363 Installation  	

Here are the steps I took to install the latest Nvidia drivers on a clean
Xandros installation. I did this all after booting into the expert mode.
Code:

1 Create a configured kernel source tree for the official 'Xandros Desktop'
kernel
  $ cd /usr/src
  $ tar xjf xandros-kernel-source-2.4.19.tar.bz2
  $ ln -sf xandros-kernel-source-2.4.19 linux
  $ cd linux
  $ cp /boot/config-2.4.19-x1 .config
  $ make oldconfig
  $ make dep

2 Install NVIDIA driver
  $ sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4363.run

3 Delete all files from the following directories (older nvidia driver files):
  $ rm /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/override/*
  $ rm /usr/lib/nvidia/*

4 Update the modules file (allows the kernel module to load successfully)
  - Modify /etc/modutils/nvidia-aliases so that NVdriver is replaced
  with nvidia. It should contain the following lines when finished:
     alias char-major-195 nvidia
     alias /dev/nvidiactl nvidia
     alias /dev/nvidia0 nvidia
  - Execute the command:
  $ /sbin/update-modules

5 (Optional) Add detection support for new GeForce cards.
   If your nvidia based video card is not listed
   in the file then you will need to add an entry for it.
  - Append the following lines to /etc/devices/ext/nvidia-video.pcimap
0x10de, 0x0322, VideoRam=131072k, Xserver=XF86_SVGA, Xdriver="nvidia", desc="GeForce FX 5200", Xmodules="-dri -GLcore"
0x10de, 0x0281, Xserver=XF86_SVGA, Xdriver="nvidia", desc="GeForce4 4200 Ti", Xmodules="-dri -GLcore"

6 Test
  - Reboot
  - Should get NVIDIA splash screen when starting X Windows
  - glxgears should work
  $ glxgears -info
     GeForce FX 5200 => 3342.000 FPS @ 1024x768 (16 bit color)
		 
The Video Settings window displays all of the appropriate
resolutions for my card and monitor and the /var/log/XFree86.0.log file has
no NVIDIA related errors.
