Go to : Administration => Add/Remove software => look for kmod-nvidia-2.6.30 => remove. Now, why kmod-nvidia suddenly asks for a driver that isn't available anymore or why kmod-nvidia hasn't been remvoed at the same time as the kernel. I don't know. Now, since the problem is about a package from rpmfusion, I understand Fedora has nothing to do with it. Since I'm such an expert in the domain, I should write to rpmfusion and have a discussion with then. After all, this problem has been covered time and again since, at least Fedora 11, and they're certainly unaware of it. What I'm sure of, though, is that the day a reviewer from the standard press -- you know, the kind of paper most people read -- encouters the problem, Fedora will once again be claimed "not ready for prime time". And this is, of course, is normal. It's exactly the kind of silliness that make experts claim that "Fedora is for experts". So, this is how the market share evolves: May 2009: Windows 93.18% Mac 4.73% Linux 1.17% <http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=8&qptimeframe=M&qpsp=124> January 2010: Windows 92.00% Mac 5.16% Linux 1.02% <http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=8&qpcal=1&qptimeframe=M&qpsp=132> Then, you write to TVs to tell them that Linux is climbing up the charts and that they should provide video in a Linux compatible format. Excuse the rant but is there any fact I got wrong? -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
