Ubuntu can detect the nvidia card and select the correct driver correctly, but apparently Livna can't or won't. Short of that, I have a script that should at least tell you which driver to use. There are notes in the script on where to get the core information.
Didn't work with one of my cards. Notice the blank space below:
[root@serge ~]# ./which-nvidia Which NVIDIA, Time-stamp: <2007-06-20 10:59:08 ccurley which-nvidia.pl> Your NVIDIA card at 01:00.0 is a , which requires the driver. 1 NVIDIA cards were found. Download from http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html Or "yum list *nvidia*" and install as appropriate.
Is there anything I can provide that helps you add it to its detection?
