FC3 RPM searches


I have YUM installed by default. I know I can get the updated nvidia driver from the livida (I believe that's it) website but it says to use YUM or APT. At the command line I issue a "yum search nvidia" command but it doesn't find anything. How would I go about getting the Nvidia RPM?

Does this RPM also modify the proper config file to use the new driver?

you can get it from nvidia's website. It's not an rpm, though, its a file you have to make executable and then run it whilst your x server is shutdown.
