    update?

    hi,

    First thanks for the nice scripts, they work really well! The nvidia-live.sh script works perfectly on my Dell Inspiron 8100 using the live Knoppix CD, version 3.3.

    However it uses quite old NVidia drivers, namely the 1.0-4349 version. If you simply change the variable VER in the script to use more recent versions it doesn't work, because the NVIDIA_kernel-....tar.gz and NVIDIA_GLX-....tar.gz do not exist for the recent drivers, only the NVIDIA-Linux-...-pkg1.run exists. I saw that some scripts have been written for these recent drivers on http://kanotix.com/files/ , but as far as I understand these scripts are for a hard drive install of Knoppix, not for using with liveCD, right?

    So could it be possible to update the nvidia-live.sh script for more recent NVidia drivers? I'd like to do it myself, I tried a bit, but as I'm not a programmer at all I got a bit confused...

    Thanks a lot!

    Perhaps we should ask Nvidia for permission to make precompiled nvidia.tgz available for download through klik ("Linux exception" of their license).
