some more infos about:
Now i got that nvidia-304.88-k3.5.2-wheezy.pet nvidia driver to work !!I indeed got a nvidia-304.88-k3.5.2-wheezy.pet + .sfs file compiled , but there is no nvidia driver in xorgwizards drivers choice list ... so...no use !charlie6 wrote:...A few minutes before that, i just got successfully driver-nvidia-304.88 on the very same machine+puppy session.

This looks trivial:
In wheezy, the nvidia.ko driver is awaited to be located in:
/lib/modules/3.5.2-dpup/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia/nvidia.ko
BUT either in the pet or in the sfs, it is located in
/lib/modules/3.5.2-dpup/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko
After have installed the pet , just symlinking as follows solves the question:
Code: Select all
ln -s /lib/modules/3.5.2-dpup/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko lib/modules/3.5.2-dpup/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia/nvidia.ko

using a Samsung Synchromaster 204b display: through the Nvidia Settings menu, and xorgwizard as well, the display resolutions range is wider, and 1280x1024 and depth=24 can be achieved
