Fedora doesn't start after installing Nvidia driver
Hi. I'm using Fedora Core 3 (kernel 2.6.9-1.667). My video card is a GeForce MX440. I started Fedora on runlevel 3 and installed the the commercial nvidia driver (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1.run). When installing the driver, it displauyed a message about there was not a precompiled kernel and hence it would build a kernel image, or something like that. After installing, I started X and everything was fine (I could use 3D applications and X worked fine), but when I boot again Fedora hangs up after message: "Configuring Kernel Parameters". I think it's a problem with the Nvidia driver splash screen that cannot be displayed on the early stage of the initialization. I read nvidia readme and it says one can add the options "NoLogo" "Boolean" on the screen or device sections of the xorg.conf file. I added them, when I installed the driver, but when starting X I received an error message telling me it didn't recognized "NoLogo" (maybe I didn't do it in the right way?). Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
