Hello George, There has been an ABI change in the kernel at version 3.11 affecting all binaries that use it, including the nvidia drivers. This is a very simple change with a simple fix. Here is the bugzilla entry. https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2956 The fix is out, you can find it here: http://www.forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=294091 This has not been released in the the rpmfusion repos because the buildsystem is currently broken. [ra@hamburger ~]$ uname -a Linux hamburger.home.ra.is 3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Sep 14 15:04:51 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [ra@hamburger ~]$ lsmod | grep -i nvidia nvidia 9430089 57 drm 274480 2 nvidia i2c_core 34242 3 drm,nvidia,videodev The fix is working great for me.
