I have been writing about Fedora on Muktware and the review was
massive hit -- around 80,000 reads. Users liked the review and our
articles. But since now I myself am not able to run Fedora on both
my machine I don't know how to write about it. I am willing to
share info (error messages) with you so as to be able to use
Fedora.

I have been a long time Ubuntu user and decided to switch post
Unity mess. I tried Fedora 16 and loved it. I installed it on both
my main PC (which has Nvidia GTX 470 card) and Dell XPS. The main
was stuck at boot, after first reboot and installing Nvidia
drivers. Could not find a fix and started using openSUSE. Just
today the Fedora on XPS also got stuck during boot and shows "use
systemct1 default" or Ctrl D. Not able to boot into the system. I
posted the issue about main PC on the forum but did not get any
solution, which I totally understand as its volunteer list and not
everyone may face the same problem. But since Fedora is not
running on both my PCs I am in bad position. I do want to use
Fedora, but due to my own technical limiations I can't. I
desperately seek your help to enable me to use Fedora :(

I faced the same problem but did not give up on Fedora. I found on
nvidia.com that the 275.43 drivers which were released on 12/14/2011
work.<br>
You will need to install at runlevel3. Do not update the kernel
until they get a permanent fix. Somebody helped me so if I can give
back, I certainly willing. I don't know much but what little I know
I will be glad to share. After all, that's what Fedora is all about.
