我是fedora 的小白，最近安装fedora发现硬件驱动安装这么麻烦阿。发一下牢骚，嘿嘿。下面进入正题：
1.首先先要升级一下内核然后重启：
suyum update kernel*reboot
已经是最新版的童鞋就不用重启了哦，(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……
2.安装 nvidia 卡驱动
For GeForce 6, 7, 8, 9, 200 & 300 series cards
surpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpmyum install kmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686
If you use a PAE kernel
Code:
surpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpmyum install kmod-nvidia-PAE
Or (akmod builds the required kmod on bootup )
Code:
surpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpmyum install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686
For GeForce FX cards
Code:
surpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpmyum --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing install kmod-nvidia-173xx xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-173xx-libs.i686
If you use a PAE kernel
Code:
surpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpmyum--enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing install kmod-nvidia-173xx-PAE
Or (akmod builds the required kmod on bootup )
Code:
surpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpmyum --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing install akmod-nvidia-173xx xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-173xx-libs.i686
3. Edit xorg.conf ( if you omit this step the driver will fail to work )
There is a bug that prevents livna-config-display from working in F14, this means you have configure xorg.conf by hand.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623742
Code:
su -nvidia-xconfiggedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and add/edit
For 32 bit
Code:
Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules"EndSection
For 64 bit
Code:
Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"EndSection
4. Reboot
