A couple of weeks ago I posted a mail specifying a problem I had with the Nvidia driver under Fed15/Gnome3.
Using either kmod-nvidia or akmod-nvidia from Rpmfusion the driver installs OK, the necessary modeset=0 and rdblacklist are added to the kernel line in grub.conf and an xorg.conf file added to /etc/X11. The boot process continues up to the login screen. I can login and the Gnome desktop appears. But then the screen freezes! (mouse and keyboard keep working). I can do nothing. Only Ctrl-Alt-F2 and shutdown. I have installed and worked with the Nvidia drivers without problems under Fed15/KDE and Fed15/LXDE using the Rpmfusion drivers. So the problem is specific to Fed15/Gnome3/Selinux. Nvidia is recently issued new drivers so I tried it again. No luck. Exactly the same problem occurs: a frozen Gnome 3 desktop. I really would like a solution to this problem because the nouveau driver is not up to the task of running Gnome 3. And this time there is some responsibility for Fedora/Gnome because Gnome 3 requires 3D hardware acceleration and the nouveau driver can't provide it sufficiently yet. I would appreciate hearing from Fed15/Gnome3 users who (maybe) have the same graphics card: Geforce 7300 LE in a Dell Dimension E520 and have also experienced (and maybe solved) this problem. Suggestions on how to solve the problem (if possible) are also welcome.
