The open source Nvidia drivers run the cooling fans at full screaming speed. Continuous fan operation at full speed when not necessary does not save energy or fan bearings. The following procedure allowed me to install the current Nvidia binary driver on 64 bit RC3. 1. Install RC3 with vesa graphics driver 2. Obtain the current .run file from Nvidia 3. Use Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get a character mode tty 4. init 3 5. Run the Nvidia installer. Be sure to let Nvidia update the configuration (modify xorg.conf). 6. Reboot Step 3 is necessary because giving init 3 from an X terminal window bollixes the keyboard. -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX N2469R caf@xxxxxxxx www.omen.com Developer of Industrial ZMODEM(Tm) for Embedded Applications Omen Technology Inc "The High Reliability Software" 10255 NW Old Cornelius Pass Portland OR 97231 503-614-0430 -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
