Hello, Yesterday evening I had a F9 x86_64 system working fine with the above mentioned kernel and the corresponding nvidia drivers from rpmfusion. This morning I typed yum update and got installed kernel 5-41 and the related updates for nvidia drivers. I installed everything, modified grub.conf to boot kernel 2.6.27.5-41 instead of the previous one and rebooted. Now I have a system which is unable to start X (it restarts continuously, I just get the initial cursor appearing and disappearing. Even the other virtual consoles restart continuously (CTRL-ALT+Fn)) I have removed with yum kernel 5-41 but now, even booting with kernel 5-37 I get the same problem as above, so I have a system without working graphic interface. 1) how do I get back exactly to what I had yesterday, that is how the heck can I tell yum to install the kmod-nvidia package for the kernel 2.6.27.5.37 and all the dependencies for THAT one? No matter what I tell it, yum keeps proposing an upgrade to the latest version of everything... Even if I type any variant of "yum install kmod-nvidia-2.6.27.5-37" I can think about, something which according to my google searches should work. 2) (alternative) what is the rpmfusion URL of the folder where all the rpms are kept, so I can download them manually with wget and then install via rpm? 3) has anybody else had these problems with the latest kernel for F9-x86_64 and nvidia drivers? How can I debug and fix them?
