Hi,
I installed Fedora 9 on my pc today. However it was unable to set the driver for my GeForce 7050/nForce 610i card. However i managed to reach to command screen by relevant change in xorg.conf ('nv' instead of 'vesa'). However still can't start the X server.
After searching on net I found that installing kmod-nvidia from 'rpmfusion.org' may solve my problem. So I installed the repo rpm from rpmfusion. However on using yum to install the package it tries to access several mirrors and returns failure message saying that "error in checksum"
. As a newbie I have no idea what's happening.But it just goes on with various mirrors of rpmfusion. Are there any other repositories from where I can get this package. Or is there error in my method. Please do reply as i need to use it for my college work. Thanks in advance.
P.S.:
1. I have also added the GPG key from rpmfusion
2. Also the rpmfusion is currently not reachable now via browser (time out error)
3.Used following commands for repo installation:
Code:
sudo rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm \
http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
Following command for GPG key:
Code:
sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-*
4. Tried the binary installation from Nvidia but it demands kernel-devel,
kernel-source, which I have no idea how to get.
