New Kernel, X Server Screwy


Hi, all.

I'm on Fedora Core 2 with the nVidia drivers. All was well until I upgraded to the latest kernel 2.6.7.something via Yum. Now, my x windows fails to load. Everything still works fine when I go back to the older 2.6.6 kernel. Are there settings with the driver or with the kernel that I must change after upgrading the kernel or is something else amiss?

Thanks,

Hi.

You'll have to run the nVidia installer again while you're running the new kernel.

I was wondering about that, but I didn't want to try it just on a hunch. Thanks.
