I tried using that in Fedora 17, but it did not work for me as the nvidia driver still complained it could not load its module while the nouveau driver was active, and I found that the method documented on the net of rebuilding the initrd with the nvidia driver installed to remove the nouveau driver did not work either for the same reasons. The only way I could find to get it to work was to uninstall the latest kernel and reinstall it which did not install the nouveau driver when it built the initrd, and all subsequent kernel installs did the same thing.On Mon, 2013-02-25 at 07:15 +1100, Stephen Morris wrote:I have all sorts of problems installing the proprietary nvidia driver from the rpmfusion directories as the install does not remove the nouveau driver from the initrdThis has been covered on this list before. You need to add "rdblacklist=nouveau" to your kernel command line; that prevents the nouveau driver from being loaded out of the initrd. That's in /etc/default/grub, then run "grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" to make it effective. For old grub, edit "/boot/grub/grub.conf"--Greg
