xorg-x11-drivers has been a metapackage with nothing dependent on it for
a very, very long time. Feel free to erase it.

which means that if I did erase it with -nodeps, yum would just drag it back in with any update.

Perhaps the answer is the xorg-x11-drivers should not depend on the individual drivers, but only have the individual drivers depend on xor-x11-drivers.

Sorry. Now I get it. erase xorg-x11-drivers ( sound of hand slapping forehead ).

Then take out whichever drivers you don't need.

But f9 will install xorg-x11-drivers by default?
