I didn't have the 2.7 kmods. I don't know why. As you can see the 2.8 loaded itself successfully.

I am not sure whether it came from the rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing repo or not. In frustration, at one point I might have downloaded it from the testing repo. > I haven't tried that yet, but > the akmod-nvidia-185.18.14-1.fc11.x86_64 one is the one that worked for > me. > If you didn't get it from RPMfusion, you might want to remove all > traces of it from wherever it came from and start from scratch with > akmod-nvidia. Agreed. I will remove all RPMfusion kmod related stuff and start over. -- Regards Bill Fedora 11, Gnome 2.26.3 Evo.2.26.3, Emacs 23.1.1 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
