Except for very rare occasions, you probably could have resorted
to use
the RPMFusion rpms (I recommend to use the nvidia-akmods)
Consequently my recommendation would be for anyone with an Nvidia
card
to always use the proprietary driver.
My recommendation is not to buy NVidia Cards
;)
In fact, in my opinion, Fedora are
doing users a grave dis-service by not providing/supporting the
proprietary driver in their standard repositories like the other 2
distros I am familiar with using (Ubuntu and Mandriva).
Well, did you ever try the
RPMFusion rpms?
