Not that expect the right response, but you should change that to saying that Livna is *one* place you can install them from. There are alternatives, people don't have to do it this way. This is where recipes fall apart. They're either too single-minded, and lock out other options, or become complicated if/then/elses. > In a root terminal type yum install kmod-nvidia.

Simply doing "yum install kmod-nvidia" will only work if you have one of the NVidia card supported by that package. If you have an older one, you'll have to work out which alternative package you'll need. That may involve reading from the nvidia website, really checking your hardware, and a lot of head scratching. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
