    I wonder if i should install nvidia display driver form nvidia.com
    instead of my current driver from livna.

    i have now installed following rpms:

    nvidia-glx-1.0.4620-0.lvn.18.1
    kernel-module-nvidia-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl-1.0.4620-0.lvn.18.1
    nvidia-glx-devel-1.0.4620-0.lvn.18.1

    and now i've downloaded NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1.run

    The reason why i want to install is that i still have Mesa's GL header
    files in /usr/include. If i remember correctly, nvidia's install
    replaced them with their own, and this is what i need.

    Why they weren't replaced when i installed driver from rpm? Can i safely
    just get the nvidia's GL header files and replace the existing ones?
