I agree, I believe it is time for me to scrap my Dell 9400
Inspiron
<br>
with its FX2500m graphic video card and invest in a newer
model. I am

going to miss her. She has been very dependable.

Likewise (time to scrap...). I can't run the latest F15 kernel
because
<br>
I'm still waiting on the nvidia drivers, and the 100% CPU
problem I have
<br>
is happening pretty much whenever I go near a web site (see
previous
<br>
post about this). At work my F15 PC with Intel graphics has no
such
<br>
problems.
<br>
<br>
(Generally my home PC is okay, so I should only need to replace
the
<br>
graphics card :-) )

I run the latest Nvidia drivers with F15 latest kernel. Since
you're on F15, updates are going to stop soon, so just get the
drivers direct from Nvidia. They work great for me.

I am using Fedora 16. I start with Beta every time there is a new
release.<br>
