I have Mandriva 2008 too. Out of box it doesnt support 3D. Go install Drivers from nVidia [WIll be a pain] and hf.

Hey bikdel, just go here http://en.opensuse.org/NVIDIA
and click on the green one click install button, key in your root password when asked for, that's all !
Its a fully automated install.
After the install, reboot your system.

Then download and install x11-video-nvidiaG01 and nvidia-gfxG01-kmp-default from the SuSE NVidia repository on another pc and install.
