Did the driver installer provide any kind of instructions on what is
needed or required?

That will depend on what's the specific driver complaint :-)

Since squeeze there is no more "an X conf file". You can however, create
a new one under the usual place "/etc/X11/xorg.conf", so if the driver is
fine just with that then make it happy...

just that it was for linux.

it was no errors just that the script didnt found the X confige file



Ah, then you can omit that, if anything else just works...

am reading about X11 configurartion and ghome has it own files for the
X window.



I dunno what you mean by this. GNOME (as any other DE) uses Xorg
settings. And vga drivers tend to search for a "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
file.

i will try to make an x conf file and see what happends

think its something else and about the invida pre installed driver.



But despite the warning about not finding the x config file, are you
getting any error, is the driver installed, what does xorg log say? :-?

Camaleón
