If you had it configured previously you /might/ be able to get it up by doing: systemctl start NetworkManager.service > When I > tried the mv, it came back and said nvidia-config-display is not a > directory. Sorry, those should all be separate lines, I've put a $ to indicate each one below (also it should have been nvidia-xconfig, not nvidia-display-config, again fixed this below): $ mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup-20111202 $ nvidia-xconfig $ echo blacklist nouveau >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf $ dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r) -- imalone -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
