just a thought, but did you take rhgb off your grub menu? I did that,
and I can use my gdm with no problem.

I took just the rhgb off, , I still have quiet and everything else
there. boots in run level 5, no problem.
you da man, thanks.
interesting though, that I get my gdm back, but the fedora graphics
never came back after loading nvidia's real drivers.
thanks my friend, though, I'm good with this.
You are welcome, and the Fedora graphics is what you just took off (
rhgb=Red hat graphical Boot) for some reasons does not like the nvidia
driver. go figure :-)
Glad to help.
BaVinic
isn't that just strange? oh well, I'm happy.
I've been fearing loading the nvidia drivers but I'm glad I did.
the GL stuff is awesome now, even on this "older" dell c840.
thanks again!
Based on your xorg.conf you should be able to, provided of course that
your monitor will support it, mine only goes as high as 1280X1024 so I
am unable to test it here :)
