Thanks in advance for any help. To use the proprietary Nvidia drivers you have to downgrade the X server to 1.17 (F23 supplies 1.18): sudo dnf --showduplicates --allowerasing --releasever=22 downgrade xorg-x11-server-Xorg You can then install the Nvidia 353.55 driver package from Nvidia's site. I did this recently and haven't had a freeze since. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
