If you had gone to the nVidia WWW site and looked at the documentation for
Linux Driver downloads, you would have found that your GeForce 7300 LE is
listed as supported by 3 of the 4 nvidia driver: 180, 173, and 96, but not
the oldest driver 71.
Try this link:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_18897.html
Just look at Appendix A of each driver's README file for the
information.
All supported GPUs are listed by both name, and some hexadecimal PCI ID
number, which I am unable to correlate to any information printed out by
"lspci" for my GeForce 6200....
Try:
# /sbin/lspci -nn | grep VGA
Example:
[mirandam@charon ~]$ /sbin/lspci -nn | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation NV34
[GeForce FX 5200] [10de:0322] (rev a1)
My 0322 corresponds to the 173.xx driver.
