I still don't understand why its so painful for you to > (re)install the nvidia driver whenever you change kernels (ignoring > the livna issues). let see... if the nvidia driver was part of the regular kernel driver set *like all the other hardware drivers are* then switching kernels is as fast as rebooting. Instead, when I reboot I get a command line instead of a graphical login screen and then I have to build a driver with ./NVIDIA*9629*.run. And with new kernels, it only works 50% of the time. When it fails you have to download a new installer and try it or go search to see what other people are doing to make it build. This isn't the first time I've had issues building an nvidia driver. I've been running this laptop for 2 years. The best was the time I had to test something under both a plain and smp kernel. Every time I switched I had to build a new driver. The switch took longer than the testing. -- Kim Lux, Diesel Research Inc. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
