I think you still need to install mesa-dri-drivers-experimental to get 3D for Nouveau. If you need more performance or if 3D is buggy for the stuff you want to do, then try the nVidia drivers using rpmfusion packages. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
