I started out using nvidia's run packages because the nouveau driver wouldn't work at all with my onboard GeForce 9100 graphics chip. Now that the nouveau driver works for me, I've abandoned the proprietary nvidia driver, and updating is a lot easier.. The proprietary nvidia driver was (and probably still is) faster, but I'm not a gamer and don't need thousands of frames per second from glxgears. Having to rebuild the nvidia package after each kernel update was annoying, especially since I tend to run Rawhide and/or branched pre-releases as my main desktop OSs. Worst of all, sometimes a kernel upgrade would work, other times the nvidia package would compile but not run, and still other times the nvidia package would not even compile. I'm impatient, and rpmusion was too slow with their updates for me (but they do an excellent job, and this is not meant in any way as a complaint ), so I didn't generally use their kmods. -- 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
