Use nvidia-x11-drv from rpmforge to get updated nvidia drivers.
Are they any good? I inherited this linux-farm from the previous *nixadmin, and the way it's setup assumes we use the proprietary drivers from nvidia, as that's what the molecular modeling software company says'll work. We need the fancy 3D-stuff and whatnot.
nvidia-x11-drv is the proprietary drivers from Nvidia, just packaged so that you (normally) don't have to worry about kernel upgrades.
We use this on a CentOS machine running molecular modelling software without problems.
That's good info, I'll look into this. Thx!
