I take you mean I need the 96xx RPMs. What I did was: yum erase xorg-x11-drv-nvidia yum install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-96xx That seemed to work: [root@phoenix ~]# lsmod | grep -i nvidia nvidia 4719284 22 i2c_core 24641 5 eeprom,lm85,i2c_ec,nvidia,i2c_i801 Now, how did you know that that was the right thing to do? I don't see anything on the Livna wiki page (http://rpm.livna.org/rlowiki/LivnaSwitcher) about this. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
