I find that I can't run with acceleration turned on with the nouveau driver at all and I've been loathe to try the nVidia driver
again since I update the kernel fairly often using rawhide and rpmfusion doesn't tend to keep up.

Just install akmod-nvidia and it will build a new kmod as needed.
Sometimes that's true, sometimes it's not. It's not true when kernel versions change (say from 3.12 to 3.13) and either nVidia
hasn't updated their code to compile for it or rpmfusion hasn't loaded the latest nVidia drivers.  Then I'm stuck having to go back
to nouveau, blah blah blah...It becomes quite a hassle..Sigh...guess that's what's meant by bleeding edge!


I have both kmod and akmod installed. That way, if the new kernel and the kmod come out together, it's taken care of by the update. If not, it's taken care of as soon as I boot into the new kernel. So far, I've never had this combo fail, and I've been doing it for several years.
