I just updated my FC6 server to F8 (replaced not upgraded) and

Same problem with nvidia-x11-drv-96xx-1.0.9639-1.i386.rpm on my 32bit
system (antique GeForce2 MX/MX 400 card). I fetched the latest legacy
driver from nvidia.org (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.01-pkg1.run.bin) which
built and runs without any glitches.

I was going to do just that as a last resort. I really like the
package from freshrpms because it uses dkms so it auto rebuilds the
driver with kernel updates instead of hoping another repo has the
driver ready the same time the kernel releases.
Thanks,

After I found the bash file on the Nvidia web page I have zero
problems with Nvidia. On F8 I just ran it once and it is fine.
