I have a fairly newbie question: I want to install the kernel upgrade, so I'll do yum update and enter y at the [y/N] prompt. Should I then reboot into the new kernel, and then do a yum install nvidia-graphics-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl and then do yum install nvidia-graphics? I'm assuming that I would need to uncomment the related atrpms lines found in artoo's yum.conf. (I'm asking because with the livna driver, there was the instruction recommending that the driver be installed *prior* to booting in the new kernel.) Thanks, Clint -- Clint Harshaw <clint@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Core 1 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl GNU/Linux Uptime: 7 days 1 hours and 20 minutes.
