Linux + nVidia = Biggest OS

why it's so slow?
poor hardware?

This is to complicated(and leads to issues at some systems) the rpm-fusion directory and the kmods make it much easier and safer. And you get all updates for them. :)

This is how I installed my nvidia drivers from the nvidia website:
Reboot, then press 'p' reboot process, type in your password if your bootloader has one. Then press 'a'. Then I typed in 'init 3' at the end of the line, and pressed enter. Log in as 'root' using 'su -'then run your drivers. I usually just put the drivers in my home directory and name them something simple like 'nvidia.run' so it's easy to remember since I dont have a gui to assist. Then reboot after install.

It is easy to install them just add the rpmfusion repository and install them via yum
su -c 'yum install kmod-nvidia'
or
su -c'yum install akmod-nvidia'
You can read that at the fedoraunity side
so have fun with it :)
-
correction: linux + fglrx, the radeon and radeonhd drivers work very well
-
Not really. Intel has better drivers and they all work out of the box due to them being opensource.

Linux + Intel = Bigger ass :P
Hi!

HOW can you run plymouth on nvidia?? i noticed you have an nvidia card!!
Nvidia drivers dont support plymouth startup! Please if you can help me not to see the ugly blue and white bars instead of plymouth i would be more than grateful!

At first, add additional plymouth themes type:
$ su -
# yum install plymouth-plugin-{fade-in,pulser,spinfinity}
Now you can try Solar theme like this.
$ su -
# plymouth-set-default-plugin solar
# /usr/libexec/plymouth/plymouth-update-initrd
And, change the modesetting option of the kernel that Fedora 10 uses.
$ su -
# gedit /boot/grub/grub.conf

You must add your framebuffer resolution at the end of the kernel line. Something like this:
title Fedora (2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686)
root (hd0,9)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 ro root=UUID=a61c8338-e373-4389-ae00-32942185f7c2 rhgb quiet vga=792
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686.img
vga=792 stands for 1024x768 resolution with 24-bit colours.
