    OK, I have installed Debiam 3.0 r5 to my hard drive, but X Window
    fails to start. The error messages complain about no screen and no
    device on a PCI bus. The missing device is the video adapter. Some of
    the detailed error message information lists the available Nvidia
    drivers. The newest driver is Geforce3. My card is a later vintage
    Geforce4.

    Is there a way to get drivers for the Geforce4 video adapter and
    install them on my system? I am new to this stuff, so I need a good
    explanation or a good pointer to a source on the Internet for
    information about getting and installing drivers.

    Thanks, jimbo
