I used the NVidia drivers for a few months, but upon every reboot I'd get the "oh no! something has gone wrong" message: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/69051/why-do-i-get-the-oh-no-something-has-gone-wrong-screen-when-using-the-fedora-22-live-dvd/ https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipO54mV5FUh95O906IObqPZax_RhlM-sRV2NH6EZGTuVYsG6d9sr9P-L4YBndzSuKg?key=cmt4UFRFUkR1R1RJeUZic1ZoVkJwZHVMaWZ3MGd3 Rebooting into single user and re-doing the install process for the video drivers would work, but it was a real pain to do that every time (the power in our neighborhood is ... finicky, so reboots are sadly a frequent-ish occurrence). I finally got tired of doing that on every reboot and decided to switch over to Nouveau, but if Nouveau can't do things like hardware acceleration on a two year-old card then I might have to switch back to the NVidia drivers. -jdm > -- > users mailing list > users@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe or change subscription options: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > Have a question?
