There's a detailed explanation of the redhat/nvidia state of affairs atm at

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/long_list/cgi?buglist=110124

If that fails, just do a google for "redhat bugzilla nvidia".

Cheers,
Daniel.

I wonder if i should install nvidia display driver form nvidia.com instead of my current driver from livna.

i have now installed following rpms:

nvidia-glx-1.0.4620-0.lvn.18.1
kernel-module-nvidia-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl-1.0.4620-0.lvn.18.1
nvidia-glx-devel-1.0.4620-0.lvn.18.1

and now i've downloaded NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg1.run

The reason why i want to install is that i still have Mesa's GL header files in /usr/include. If i remember correctly, nvidia's install replaced them with their own, and this is what i need.

Why they weren't replaced when i installed driver from rpm? Can i safely just get the nvidia's GL header files and replace the existing ones?
