== Determining your card model == To determine your card model, open a Terminal (Applications > System Tools > Terminal) and type: {{{ /sbin/lspci | grep VGA }}} == Installing the drivers == === Akmods === An akmod is a new type of package similar to the kmod. Akmods have a feature set similar to dkms, as they will rebuild a binary kmod package for you if one does not exist when you boot with a new kernel. However, akmods have more overhead than regular kmods as they require a few development tools such as gcc and automake. If you think you'd like to use akmods, simply replace '''kmod''' with '''akmod''' in the instructions below. For example, kmod-nvidia-96xx becomes '''a'''kmod-nvidia-96xx. Akmods are fully compatible with regular kmods, so you can switch between the two or even use both at once without any problems. === Fedora 10 === Please remember that once the drivers are installed, they will configure your xorg.conf automatically and changes will take effect after a full reboot. There is no need to run nvidia-xconfig or other tools. ==== GeForce 6 and higher ==== {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia }}} ==== GeForce 5 (FX series) ==== {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia-173xx }}} ==== GeForce 2 through GeForce 4 ==== {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia-96xx }}} ==== Older ==== Unfortunately, nVidia has not yet released a 71.xx legacy driver compatible with Fedora 10. === Fedora 8 and 9 === ==== GeForce 6 and higher ==== {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia }}} ==== GeForce 5 (FX series) ==== {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia-173xx }}} ==== GeForce 2 through GeForce 4 ==== {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia-96xx }}} ==== Older ==== Unfortunately, nVidia has not yet released a 71.xx legacy driver compatible with Fedora 10. {{{ yum install kmod-nvidia-legacy }}} === Special note: x86_64 users === If you wish to have 3D acceleration in 32bit packages such as Wine, be sure to install the xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i386 package for your driver variant. For example, if you installed kmod-nvidia then you will require xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i386, but if you install kmod-nvidia-'''96xx''', you will need xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-'''96xx'''-libs.i386. == Troubleshooting == If you're experiencing problems with the drivers (in particular, lack of 3D after using nvidia-xconfig or nvidia-settings), try executing these commands: {{{ nvidia-config-display disable nvidia-config-display enable }}} This will re-configure xorg.conf for use with the RPM Fusion drivers. ---- CategoryPackages |
