You should be taking the issue to nvidia, not here. People should stop blame NVIDIA for everything because of the binary-only drivers. There are many reasons, why the 3D-accelerated drivers are not (yet) open-source, some more valid than others. For me, the problem is not 3D-acceleration, but TwinView. Reverting to the open-source driver would break my configuration and not just make some games stop working. Also, NVIDIA does not support Fedora Core 5. They support Linux in general and simply cannot follow every little technical issue of hundreds of distributions. -- Gérard Milmeister Langackerstrasse 49 CH-8057 Zürich -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
