1) what kind of a video card do you have? you may have forgot to add the module in the kernel config, or possibly you need to recompile/"install" it (if it's a nvidia card, get their installer and run it).

2) what kind of a sound card do you have? what module is being loaded for it? are you getting any errors?

since you have a nvidia card you will have to reinstall the nvidia drivers. using these instructions.

for your sound.....since the native sound in the 2.6 kernel is alsa my guess is that you will have to unmute your sound channels. to do this open a mixer, such as aumix, and unmute the channels to the desired sound level.

if i don't want use nvidia driver, only use linux native driver. what i shoud do?

contrasutra · 2003-09-22 11:05:55

In the driver section of /etc/X11/XF86Config, have your card use the "nv" driver,

Semi OT: I successfuly installed the patched NVIDIA drivers, but for some reason, I have to reinstall them every reboot, anyone know how to solve this?

No, it says the driver isn't found.
