Your Information helped me a lot.  Thanks a TON.
I exactly followed your instruction, though i did read NVIDIA manual which
asked me
to close xwindows before running their driver, otherwise you step was
absolutely correct.
Just one thing i couldnt find the line - [ Load GLcore ].

Anyway now my Tux Racer game is pretty good :).  Just cant wait going home
tonight and
try all those nice games which works fast now :).

Have a great day.
