I've installed RH 9.0 on a new machine with an NVidia GeForce FX Video card,
(128 M Vram),  and on boot from Grub, the monitor goes to blink.  I did
change the video driver to Generic GeForce FX assuming this would be fine. I
also changed the Vram setting to be 128 meg.  Sure would be nice to have RH
9.0 up and running like before.  Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

-Mike

Download the official nvidia drivers from www.nvidia.com, and then modify th e /etc/X11/XF86Config (most importantly is to change the driver to "nvdriver") . //Aho
