With the new 2.6.9-1.3_FC2 kernel my oldish
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6111-pkg1.run was a bit confused on where things
were. It would exit in one of the sanity check phases....
I downloaded the latest NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1.run then booted
2.6.9-1.3_FC2 to run level 3 and the .run package did its magic just
fine. Up and running: run level 5 and X. All is fine now.
Summary: Count to ten and download the latest .run from nVidia prior
to rebooting with the new 2.6.9-1.3_FC2 kernel. It will not be long
and the "repository" rpms will have been tested with this new kern
package by others so if you are a rpm package user for your nVidia
closed source (accelerated) driver install count to twenty and make
sure your 'rpm' will do the expected.
