Was it really mandatory (or obligatory, I don't know which one is the most suitable, sorry for my english) to translate that topic ?
Indeed all links lead to french websites ... not very useful for english speaking people, isn't it?
bye

Well I translated quickly and I know that the links are in french. I have to search for links in english, but since I dont know much about linux it's taking me some time ^^

I can help you for openSUSE's links at least :
First, the NVIDIA link for openSUSE is easy to update : just replace the"fr" by "en" in the url.
Then, you can give this one: http://en.opensuse.org/ATI for ATI cards under openSUSE.

And for Ubuntu, can you talk about the "restricted drivers manager", please?

Well, in ubuntu, to install proprietary drivers for graphic cards, and other components that only work with proprietary drivers, you can use the Restricted Drivers Manager.
It really easy to use, and i recommend it to ubuntu users.
To access it, go to System->Administration->Restricted Drivers Manager.

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) and I installed the Nvidia graphics drivers with EnvyNG.
EnvyNG can also install the ATI drivers in Ubuntu, would think it works on other linux distris too but I have only tried it on Ubuntu :P
Anyways, EnvyNG is for Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) so if you have an older version you can use
Envy (without NG at the end). Same website and developer, easy to install and use.
Here's the link for Envy and EnvyNG

Here's a link on the Gentoo Wiki although it should be useful for more than just Gentoo Users
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/dri-howto.xml
It explains the Basics of What DRI is and a bit regarding drivers and the appropriate Kernel Options.
Also the commands used are all pretty much all generic commands and should work for any Distro that doesn't use a pre-compiled Kernel and covers X config Edited by Phoenix_12

Well since nobody else did one, here is the RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux notes for ATI & nVIDIA. Basically you need elrepo & upgrade & update, then you blacklist appropriately, then install.

Locking This PostReason: Outdated info. Bug report now open to create a wiki/KB for information such as this, which will trickle down to the site as new info is added (as in, it will update the FAQ on this page as the wiki is updated). Again, this is if we go in this direction to have a wiki built. For more info, refer to: http://www.playonlinux.com/en/issue-1944.html
