Isn't this the machine that you have frequently mentioned that you run
an "Nvidia bash file" each time there is a kernal update?

   Yes that is correct. It seems to work just fine.

It works fine, or it locks up?

The video driver you are using is a proprietry one, not an open source
one.

Steve your just a old man that is still pushing the really stupid idea that if it was not invented at Fedora it is crap. This binary with no source-code comes from Nvidia just like the one you get if your using Windows. Both users need this "driver" software to make their Nvidia video card work.

It works just fine and a person on this list put me in touch with it. The things Fedora try to do to keep up an rpm with Nvidia software coming with kernel updates is a silly way to do things. The binary I use works on ALL Linux. This is what the people at Nvidia want.

You seem to think all drivers must have source code. I think that is stupid.
