Ulrick > I am baffled on this Steve I am now having serious doubts about installing F13 As you said F12 is no problem I reinstated nouveau on my F12 and reinstalled Nvidia drivers in about 5 minutes on this F12 machine. I am running a Nvidia 9400 gt and it was a snap to install I did not use the nomodeset command at the Grub.conf file just rdblacklist-nouveau after quiet on all kernel lines Worked like a charm I for one have to have Nvidia drivers for the cuda on the Nvidia 9400gt as I use the gpu to do Seti@home so nouveau is totally out and the mesa drivers do not support cuda Do you by chance have another PCIE nvidia that you can try just to see if something went awry with your 9600. If no luck then I would say it is a F13 bug. Lots of other people have installed Nvidia with F13 and apparently it is supposed to be a snap.
