Hi Svilen,

Sorry for the late reply had some connectivity problem due to some fault at
the ISP.

Coming to the problem, I am not sure about the driver used earlier, it must
be the one which is installed by default.
As for the error, it got solved after i installed the proprietary nVidia
driver by "yum install kmod-nvidia".
Please do tell me if you want any specific data in order to identify the
source of error before
I installed the nVidia driver.

Also, i encountered a strange problem with the keyboard which got stuck
during the installation but the mouse worked.
I had to logout and login as root to continue the installation of the
driver. Later though i could not login as normal user as the
keyboard stopped working after logging in. I simply created a new user and
am using the same.

regards,
Sandesh
