Re: FC3 and Nvidia driver 7167

Yeah, I could download the drivers from livna, but yum was also
updating the kernel to 2.6.10, and I wanted to avoid that, till my X
was not working.

But if the new driver can be downloaded and installed without updating
the drivers, do tell me and send me either the url/file to download
and install the drivers.
