Xgl on Fedora core5 + nvidia
■ Configuring Yum
Here's how to configure your yum:
1. Open a Terminal.
2. Become root:
#su root
3. Run these commands to remove your yum.conf file and replace it with a fresh one (Updated 1 May 2006):
#cd /etc
#mv -f yum.conf yum.conf.bak
#wget http://www.fedorafaq.org/samples/yum.conf
4. Now, install my yum configuration (Updated 9 May 2006), using this command:
#rpm -Uvh http://www.fedorafaq.org/yum http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm
■ Install 3D driver [nvidia]
#su root
#yum install kmod-nvidia or (dual core) yum install kmod-nvidia-smp
#sesebool -p allow_execmod=1
#init 3 (?) (shutdown X)
#nvidia-cofig-display enable
#shutdown -r now (restart)
if you have ATI
