Strange Occurrence

[Gene Poole]

I'm running Fedora 8 on a AMD X2 5600+ with 4-GB RAM. It also has an nVidia
video card (not sure of the exact number just now) with the nVidia driver
from the livna repository.

After running a yum update ( su -c 'yum -y update') the machine would boot
but only go to just before the user login screen (graphic).  I booted from
the rescue cd and attempted to figure out what was wrong (which I couldn't
at that point), but I did mange to get it booted to the super user.  What I
ended up doing was to run a yum command to remove the nVidia driver ( su -c
'yum -y remove kmod-nvidia').

Everything is working correctly at this point, but I don't have the nVidia
driver installed.  Has anyone else run into this issue?

Thanks,
Gene Poole
