Sounds like maybe a resolution or frequency problem. What resolution are you running? What is the native resolution of you LCD screen (the resolution where each pixel is a physical pixel)? My laptop is widescreen and not a natuarally supported resolution. Is this black line part of the screen? That is, can you move the mouse beyond the border (and not see it, possibly), or does it stop there (with the left edge showing)? Does you screen extend beyond the monitor to the left? > Fedora turns into 2.6 Kernel so I find myself forced to use the new > nVidia drivers (now 1.0-6629) my problem now is that I can't fix the I use the 6111 driver. I think there have been problems with the latest driver (6629). Unless you have a GeForce 6 (which you obviously don't), it's probably best to stick with the oldest version that works for you. Newer drivers are optimized for the newer cards and could possibly reduce performance for older ones. > black line problem with the new driver, I even try editing the os- > registry.c file setting the NVreg_SoftEDIDs to 0 and NVreg_Mobile to 2 > (the values that solve driver 4496 problem) but nothing. > > I've use my system without nVidia Driver since FC2 but now with FC3 I re > take the challenge so if anyone have any clue that can guide me to > install the drive I will be really greatfull. Be sure to check the release notes and other posts on the list. There has been a lot of chatter about nVidia cards and the new udev system. > Regards. > JMartin Jonathan
