First thing that happened when I installed the beta was the lack of X,
'cause I have a GeForce4, so if ppl are goin to install and use a NVidia
models GeForce or Tnt (I cant garantee for quadro or others), this info
will come in handy.
Here is how I installed NVidia drivers on Severn release 2:
Download the latest driver:
wget
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-4496/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run
If you try to run this as is, you will only got an error when it tries
to recompile a module for our kernel acusing diferent compilers, so lets
do this at comand line:
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run --add-this-kernel
Gotta thanks the NVidia programmers for that one.
After it all done you can run the new installer:
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2-custom.run
and everything should be fine. Update /etc/X11/XFree86Config you it
wasnt already prepared for their drivers and have fun with your bug
hunting with the possibility to watch dvds on tv-out during breaks :)

ps: Is this the definitive logo for Fedora Core? It is kinda ... basic...
ps2: I upgraded from Shrike and couldnt select pckages. Thats bad :(
