Re: Nvidia drivers problem
Thanks for help, but when i run the utility to create the default
xorg.conf and restart the machine y cannot get X interface.
I have nVidia Corporation G71 [GeForce 7950 GT], is it work with the
current Nvidia driver?....

The xorg.conf file is not *needed* anymore in F-10. The X-server will determine the
parameters by itself. But if there *is* a xorg.conf file X-server will use it. Since the
proprietary nvidia drivers need a xorg.conf file in most scenarios, I think a generic one
needs to be built via "system-config-display --reconfig", possibly in %post.
