I tried adding "Autoreq: 0" to the spec file, and it made no difference. I also tried adding another filter (though the existing one looks like it should work correctly too) to the spec file, like this: %filter_from_requires /^libnvcuvid\.so/d; That also made no difference. I finally just installed using rpm with --nodeps, and it's booted and working fine so far. Hopefully my xorg execessive cpu usage problem will be solved, I won't know until the system has been up for a while. -- Patrick
