LCD Monitors and Fedora

[Michael J. Pawlowsky]

nv didn't do it at all for me...   I downloaded the kernel source and 
with the Driver tool on their site ( 
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-6629.html ) it 
compiled the nvidia driver for me.

The hassle is everytime you upgrade kernels, you need to redo this 
process. I've been doing it for since RedHat 7.3 and way too many 
kernels!  :-)

Every so often (like this time) you need to update their tool. I was 
getting the error it could not find the kernel source. And then I 
updated the tool and it compiled no problem. Well one warnnig abouf not 
being compatible with another driver in the kernel  vesatab or something 
like that. I looked and I did not see it loaded so I ignored that warning.
