Since I did a reboot on my system, I cannot get the nVidia drivers to work. DKMS tries to rebuild the module but fails. I removed the driver and then rebooted. Re-installed the driver and rebooted again with the same failure. I don't know if this is related to the latest kernel for Fedora 8 or not. According to the nVidia web site, the latest version is now -- Version: 173.14.09 And there now seems to be a 64 bit version as well. Are there plans to provide a new driver soon or should I go to the Livna kernel module until there is? I see that the most recent builds for Fedora 8 is April 30th. Does this mean Fedora 8 support is dropped? Fedora 8 kernel-2.6.25.4-10.fc8 nvidia-x11-drv-169.12-1.fc8 nvidia-x11-drv-32bit-169.12-1.fc8 I see that there is a build for a newer nvidia video driver for Fedora 9 but not the latest. nvidia-x11-drv-173.14.05-1.beta.fc9.i386.rpm Robin Laing
