From the following post by Cabrilo at nVnews it looks like Linuxant has produced an rpm that solves the nvdia driver problem in fedora core 2:

"If you are as lazy as me and you just LOVE rpm's, here is a solution to all of your problems:

"They are identical to the Fedora kernels, except for the removal of problematic CONFIG_4KSTACKS, nostack and 4G/4G patches."

I am using one right now. glxgears is giving nice results!"

SO, we can use this rpm and get nvidia going, right?

Actually you can just swing by http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux.html for the latest driver. They released it on June30, 2004 and it includes support for 4kstacks. I'm running it now and all is wonderfully harmonious.

Peace Out,

Woohoo, now I've got Fedora kernels on my laptop and desktop with Nvidia cards and with Nvidia drivers to boot. It's a shame that they still taint the kernel. Someday maybe we'll get it all.
