Similar problem here, no nvidia dialog or nvidia splash screen when loading, There is an Nvidia X Server Settings in the System menu - but it doesn't do anything (just a few selection boxes). I tried clicking on 'install-nvidia' in rox but that didn't do anything either.If the games start, but you don't get the nvidia-dialog, please click on:
/usr/local/install-nvidia-m008/install-nvidia
Descent - that ran in a 3" x 2" box, a little lost on my 20" widescreen.
Quake ran in slow motion - I died quickly!
Doomsday - I just got a graphically garbled screen (ctr-alt-bs to get out)
Tuxracer played fine but exited to # (xwin to get back)
Others were ok.
The only other problem I'm encountering, which I'm sure I've read about before, is after closing an app clicking on the menu icon reopens that app.
My system is: Intel Core 2 Quad 9450, OCZ DDR2 Reaper 4gb ram, Asus Rampage Formula Mobo, Asus N8800GT Extreme Gforce graphics card with 1gb DDR3 ram (Overkill I know!)
The files are all on a pristine (ntfs) hard drive, and booting up from cd.
Any help you can give to get them running would be appreciated as I love the layout and the concept, and would like to build on it for Games as I do with Muppy for everything else! Which I thank you for.
