users of the Nvidia rpms from www.educ.umu.se/~peter/nvidia should note that there are new builds of kernel-module-nvidia-driver available for the updated 2.4.22-1.2129.nptl kernel.

Now, I used these after installing FC1, but I've been unable to get them (or any of the others that are around) working after the upgrade to 2129. I eventually had to resort to re-rolling my own using the normal installer.


They install OK, but I can't start the X server due to the error 'no screens found'.

I've had this before when trying to automtically detect at boot-up whether I've got the drivers for 'this' kernel, and compile accordingly. Often I'll create a driver, reboot and get the 'no screens' error.

I never got to the bottom of that, but it became less of an issue when I stopped having multiple kernels insrtalled. Would be nice to get the RPMs going again, though.
