Even if booted from live DVD, you can
1. Mount the installed linux partition on say /linux (assuming you make
the dir) while booted from live DVD.
2. download the driver NVIDIA-Linux-x86-346.59.run and save it in
/linux/root (for example)
3. chroot /linux
4. execute the driver NVIDIA-Linux-x86-346.59.run
It will install and then you can reboot into your installed linux.
pls. let us know if this works.
If I'm understanding his emails correctly, he doesn't have Fedora
installed yet. He can't run the installer, that's why he's on the
live DVD in text mode.
Sorry, my bad.
I did not read his email right.
Only solution I see is to totally disable the nvidia gpu in BIOS
and enable only the Intel gpu.
If BIOS cannot disable the nvidia gpu (i.e. hide it from linux's devices
probe phase), then
perhaps boot options can mask it out somehow?
Failing that, then I am sorry to say that Patrick may be SOL.
