Re: F13 - Nvidia graphic driver - 3D acceleration problems

I'd also suggest using kmod or akmod for the nvidia driver.  I did; I'm running a nvidia 6200, and running Skype and Wine (but not Wow ;)) and I'm getting 800+ fps with glxgears at the default window size.

I would suggest removing the '.run' installed driver: 

http://fedorasolved.org/video-solutions/remove-nvidia-installer/

Then, see if the free nouveau driver included with fedora meets your
needs:

If it doesn't, then finally install the kmod from rpmfusion for the non
free binary only nvidia driver:
