but anyway:

http://www.nvidia.com - you need the nvidia binary drivers

my xorg 7.1.1 and beryl 0.2.1 packages for slackware

     installation instructions - for beryl, just install my beryl packages after installing my xorg packages

xorg7.1 for slackware      I had to tweak some things, and rebuild fontconfig (dropline's build) to link with /usr/X11R7

beryl packages
