Hi there, I have a nVidia GEForce MX 440 card but never bothered with OpenGL applications before. But I just installed FC6 and heard all rumors about compiz, so I decided to give it a try. I understand I need the nVidia proprietary drivers for compiz to work with my card, so I installed the package from Freshrpms.net. But it looks like the kernel refuses to load the drivers. At least I say a message saying so during boot and could not start X. I had to reconfigure X to use the Xorg open source driver (nv) instead of the proprietary one (nvidia) but I could not find in any log that message. I read the docs from nVidia web site but had no success. What could be preventing the driver to load? Maybe SELinux?
Impossible to say without at least seeing your X log. You might also want to post on nvnews.net. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L. Friedman netllama@xxxxxxxxx LlamaLand http://netllama.linux-sxs.org
