I reinstall a fedora 19 and I am experiencing troubles with the
graphics apparently.
With the previous installation fedora 14. I had to install:
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia
nvidia-settings
nvidia-xconfig
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs
and run:
nvidia-xconfig
Should I do the same again?
Most probably, the only thing you need to install is the "kmod-nvidia"
package from rpmfusion repo. It will pull in everything else you need.
I never needed to run nvidia-xconfig or similar utilities, and I don't
trust them to do a proper configuration.
If you need to change resolution away from the optimal one (whatever
reason be for wanting that), I suggest that you use xrandr. It is
by far the most proper way to configure the display. You may want to
familiarize yourself with "man xrandr".
HTH, :-)

OK,
Thank
Now
yum install kmod-nvidia
gives:
Packages skipped because of dependency problems:
1:kmod-nvidia-319.32-2.fc19.i686 from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
1:kmod-nvidia-3.10.3-300.fc19.i686-319.32-2.fc19.i686 from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
1:xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-319.32-7.fc19.i686 from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
1:xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-319.32-7.fc19.i686 from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
It seems that there are some confusion with kmod-nvidia
Which one?
I suspect that the answer may be 'none of the above' for your machine.
They are probably for more recent hardware.
