Try "yum install kernel-module-nvidia" For future reference, The package name usually does not match the filename, but is the first part of the filename. The versioning and packager information is often also part of the filename. In this case I see kernel version(2.6.10-1.770), distribution(FC3), driver version (1.0.6629), packager(lvn), and architecture(i686) as part of the filename as well as the package name(kernel-module-nvidia). > Setting up Install Process > Setting up Repos > updates-released 100% |=========================| 951 B > 00:00 > livna-stable 100% |=========================| 951 B > 00:00 > extras 100% |=========================| 951 B > 00:00 > base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB > 00:00 > livna-testing 100% |=========================| 951 B > 00:00 > Reading repository metadata in from local files > updates-re: ################################################## 706/706 > livna-stab: ################################################## 168/168 > extras : ################################################## 952/952 > base : ################################################## 2622/2622 > livna-test: ################################################## 45/45 > No Match for argument: kernel-module- > nvidia-2.6.10-1.770_FC3-1.0.6629-0.lvn.6.3.i686.rpm > Nothing to do >
