Hey guys

ok first situation, is there a guide to installing nvidia drivers propiatery, im abit new to slackware. ive come from archlinux so im not used to the idea behind slackware, slapt-get, and source

Second

ok basically. i use 64bit usually due to my hardware but i generally always need to install a bunch of 32bit librarys to get specific programs working such as secondlife viewer singularity

which also uses a phew KDE Libs. generally the same ones Skype uses to display

Also. mesa libs/32bit libs without having to install libgl due to nvidia drivers

And the kdelibs from a yaourt kdelibs or kdebase

in archlinux id pacman the following packages
gcc-multilib gcc-libs-multilib binutils-multilib libtool-multilib lib32-glibc lib32-nvidia-utils, lib32-alsa-lib lib32-libstdc++5 lib32-openal

And then id get the mesa 32bit libs from the french multilib repo's

So basically im wondering if theres a way to get the similiar packages on Salix XFCE Basic install 64 bit , or some sort of multilib option which will provide most of the necessary librarys

This should be helpful => http://www.salixos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=2798

thanks for the link on nvidia, any idea about the 32bit compatability libs and kde libs?

Don't use it myself but you may find some useful posts with the word 'multilib' in the forum search box.

Maybe this?
