There are some of my thoughts:
- Beginning, The Mandriva 2009 will choose kernel-server-2.6.27.0
- After installed, Do not update anythings
- Put you install DVD into DVD-Rom, then update kernel to kernel-desktop-2.6.27.0 (which also support memory to 4GB). Or , suggestion, Using Easy urpmi to update to kernel-desktop-2.6.27.5. Please don't forget to install kernel source code.
- Type commend as root: urpmi nvidia
- If you are not kernel-desktop-2.6.27.5, it will update automaticly
- It will install x11-driver-video-nvidia-177.70, dkms-nvidia-current-177.70, nvidia-current-kernel-2.6.27.5-desktop and so on
- Type "XFdark" as root
- My video card is GeForce 9400GT, it will suggest choose "GeForce 6100 or later"
- Reboot, using kernel-desktop-2.6.27.5
