Sorry, but I have to disagree on this (again... ;) ) Anyone who is maintaining a linux system (and thus has root access) really needs to learn about yum in order to get system updates. I would not like to be a user on a system maintained by someone who doesn't have at least some basic understanding of the up date system (preferably they should no a lot about it, its not hard...). Seeing as they have to do this anyway I (personally) think it is much more convenient to add the nvidia driver to the same update system. Really, using the livna rpm + the kmod yum plugin (the atrpm repo has similar driver and plugin rpms, so if you prefer you can use that one) is a 'set it up and forget it' solution. Once you have it up and running you can safely leave the system to update itself (if you want) and be happy that the nvidia driver will also also be updated each time it is needed. With the official installer root has to log in each time and run it by hand. No where near as convenient. cheers Chris -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
