You don't need to worry about it unless there is a kernel update, at which point you should reinstall the drivers so they build against the new kernel.  IIRC, that's. '/NVIDIA.RUN --uninstall '

Try the kmod again while you have the nvidia ones uninstalled, if you like. I still haven't read where the default drivers were inadequate for you....



I am going to do this for you Pete, and pray it works. I haven't tried this way before. I have install Fedora 16 on my laptop about 30 times trying to get the 290.10 nvidia drivers from rpmfusion to installed but I never tried it this way.

Lawrence,

 There's a 295.09 beta nvidia driver in rpmfusion now (akmod).  I've loaded it from the nvidia.com download site and it's working for my laptop.  You may want to try it from the rpmfusion site and see how it looks (or you may not).

Kevin


I don't know where you found it because I don't see it anywhere.
