Nvidia Display Drivers

1. Ensure you have the livna repo and yumex installed, as given on "Update of Fedora Core Linux for latest Software and Patches".

2. Start up a terminal, and as "Super User", issue the command yum install kmod-nvidia (For very old nvidia cards, you might have to use the kmod-nvidia-96xx package).

3. Once installed, issue the command cd /etc/X11

4. Then, make a backup copy of the xorg.conf file, by issuing the command cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.mybackup.

5. Edit the the xorg.conf file and change the device to nvidia. You might wish to use the file xorg.conf.agr.txt as a reference configuration file.
