Nvidia Driver update request

[Rogelio_Noriega at Dell.com]

Ed,

I've put together nvidia's 169.12 driver in a dkms format rpm for RHEL4. Please keep in mind this driver is not officially supported I've only done minimal testing use it at your own risk. I should have the RHEL5 rpm done tomorrow.

RHEL4 download: http://linux.dell.com/files/nvidia/rhel4/

Thanks Roger

We have been experiencing a problem with our T3400's and T5400's with dual monitors that when the screensaver kicks in and then the user unlocks it, the 2nd monitor stays black.  If they re-lock the screen and unlock it a 2nd time it returns to normal.  This is on both the Nvidia provided 100.14.19 as well as the Dell DKMS version under RedHat Enterprise 4, I have not seen this issue on 5 but I don't have any T3400's or T5400's running 5 yet.  Earlier today I downloaded driver version 169.09 from Nvidia and this does not seem to have this problem.  Would it be possible to get this package created in a DKMS format?

 

Thanks in advance!
