OK...here is the error I'm getting with regard to updating the machine with the current kernel and nvidia packages issue: Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-i686 = 2.6.23.14-107.fc8 is needed by package kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 I have: kernel-devel-2.6.23.15-137.fc8 kernel-2.6.23.15-137.fc8 kernel-xen-2.6.21-2952.fc8 kernel-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 kernel-headers-2.6.23.15-137.fc8 kernel-xen-2.6.21-2957.fc8 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-169.09-4.lvn8 kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.14-107.fc8-169.07-2.lvn8 kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.15-137.fc8-169.09-7.lvn8 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-169.09-4.lvn8 kmod-nvidia-169.09-7.lvn8 How can I resolve this?
If you are running the 2.6.23.15-137 kernel, just remove the 2.6.23.14-107 kernel. Then your update won't try to update the nvidia drivers for that kernel.
The kmod-nvidia stuff seems to get confused if: You're running one kernel A new kernel is installed without updating the nvidia drivers Another new kernel is installed -- Mike Iglesias Email: iglesias@xxxxxxx University of California, Irvine phone: 949-824-6926 Network & Academic Computing Services FAX: 949-824-2270
Thanks.
