Yes, I know, and I had done that. The error messages I originally
reported were for a clean run of yum.
I will investigate the claim of another poster that the problem has
cleared when I get home this evening.
I don't think it's my ISP (Bell South, AKA AT&T), as I've had no trouble
with other recent yum updates or other Livna NVidia updates via yum in the
past. Just this most recent batch. Also, I tried downloading the
packages and installing them by hand at one point and X just crashed. I
haven't tried to troubleshoot that issue in any depth yet.
One other point. I have another computer that uses the NVidia Legacy
drivers from Livna, and it won't update those either.
