So far i can see, there is no kmod-nvidia for FC6 kernel.
The newer driver seems to be : kmod-nvidia-1.0.8762-1.2.6.16_1.2122_FC5.i686.rpm 25-May-2006 07:58 1.6M
from : http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/development/i386/


1) Livna are unlikely to make releases until FC6 final is released

2) FC6T1 has upgraded to Xorg 7.1, Nvidia will need to change their driver in reponse to this.

3) During testing you are better off sticking with the open-source "nv" driver (or failing that the "vesa" driver) rather than the proprietary binary "nvidia" driver, because it will "taint" the kernel, therefore kernel developers will be less interested in any crashes you encounter.

...and BTW i have good colors now :)
thx a bunch Andy !
