Here's my situation - I have kernel 2.6.8-1.521, I
installed the Livna Nvidia rpms:
[root@localhost root]# rpm -qa | grep nvidia
kernel-module-nvidia-2.6.8-1.521-1.0.6106-0.lvn.4.2
nvidia-glx-1.0.6106-0.lvn.4.2
But I'm having problems - Chromium doesn't work, and
neither does Tux Racer. So I thought I would download
the driver right from Nvidia. But first I need to
uninstall the Livna Nvidia rpms.
Here's what happens:
[root@localhost root]# rpm -e kernel-module-nvidia
error: package kernel-module-nvidia is not installed
[root@localhost root]# rpm -e nvidia-glx
error: Failed dependencies:
nvidia-glx = 0:1.0.6106 is needed by
(installed)
kernel-module-nvidia-2.6.8-1.521-1.0.6106-0.lvn.4.2
So I did
rm /var/lib/rpm/__db.*
rpm --rebuilddb
and that didn't even do the trick - same errors trying
to erase the nvidia rpms.
Anyone know how to correct this?
TIA.
Hardy Merrill
