Titel: Problems after HD installation
After I installed KANOTIX in the hard disk I discovered some problems.

1. I cannot install drivers for my card (it needs Nvidia 7174). There are some drivers in the repository but not for my kernel 2.6.16.16

2. I cannot play DVD's (I tried both with Kaffeine & Xine) both close abnormally

3. I cannot use my Hauppauge wintv-usb external card with FM

I have look around in the forum but I haven't find an answer yet!

Any suggestion please???

snvv,
1.) there is a script to install nvidia at /usr/local/bin.
first do: update scripts-kanotix.sh
then open the mentioned script, remove the # in front of 7174, and add it for the default driver at the bottom of the lit of drivers.
then go to init 3 and run as root:
install-nvidia-debian.sh

for 2.) please come to irc #kanotix
(there is a blue konversation-icon on yer desk, that takes you right there)
cant be answered here.
3.) i dont know now, ask in irc as well.

Hi!!! Thank you for your answers. Second is solved in irc!!!
The 2rd will be solved some day (its not ergent)

About Nvidia.
I am sure that 7174 is the driver for my card..
I comment the uncoment driver in the script and uncomment the 7174. Where else I have to put it? Where is the default driver?

Any way i got When i tried to install i got the following message "Legacy nVidia VGA adapter found. Ask nVidia to update legacy driver!"


I downloaded the drivers and tried to install after i installed the kernel first. Again I was not able to install.

Finaly in synaptic nvidia-glx-legacy has dependancy problems and will not install.

Thank you
