Storm and Geforce2 MX

[Laslo7]

I just installed Storm and I am having trouble with my video. Of the Supplied drivers which should I install? The Nvidia ones don't seem to work with my GeForce2MX, but then again I am not the most experienced when is come to LINUX yet. I have a POS Proview 772 monitor(17 inch), I got it for free from a local vendor, one of the perks in doing high volume sales with them. I set the monitor to do 1024*786 16bit color and a 72 refresh. When I test the set-up the screen becomes garbled and totally unusable.
Any thoughts?

Honestly, I'm not sure about this. If you don't get an answer here, I would suggest you go to the STORMIX maillist (http://www.stormix.com/resources/community/maillists_html) and post your question there. Someone there may be able to help you. If I don't get an answer from here, that's where I go. Be patient... you will likely get an answer, it just may take a little while.

You are going to need to install XFree86 4.0.1 first, then the NVIDIA drivers. The bad news is, I can't point you in the right direction for doing so.
