For once I love nvidia!

I just finished installing the new updated nvidia drivers for Mandrake 9. 1 and all I have to say is this. . . DAMN! For once in 14 times trying to get these dang things to work, this worked right off the bat.

I was playing Quake III and UT all afternoon.
It was so simple to do and all I did was remove the "nv" and replaced it with "nvidia"
Works wonderfull. Thanks so much NVIDIA for gettings something right for me that is.. :):

Yeah, gotta love 'em
 
I had installed 4191, run glxgears, and got around 1800 fps. Now, with 4349, I get 2100 fps
 
And I'm using Mandrake 9.1 ofcourse.

I stopped having problems with the nVidia Linux drivers when I gave up trying to install the RPMs and just downloaded the source tarballs.
 
I just hope the nForce drivers are as easy to install...
