Linux + NVidia nForce4

Post by Miles Teg »

Anyone here have any experience with Linux on an NVidia nForce4 chipset. Specifically, any problem/compatability issues with the onboard peripherals?

Edit:

Any problems with PCI-express video cards and X?

nVidia has a binary driver available: nvidia.com link. The only problem is that it's dated October 2004, so I'm unsure of nForce4 support.

I know that the nForce has had a number of issues with Linux due to driver support. If you encounter any problems, there's a number of forums you can check, one of them being nforcershq.com.
