I have been waiting to see if a kmod comes available and there seems to be the wrong one published by RPMfusion.
Fedora doesn't produce the kmod. You really should be asking about this on the RPMfusion mailiing lists.
This is true, but to the extent that some people can't use the recent kernel until a working video driver is available, it is a Fedora issue. Updates which have security implications really shouldn't have to run in R/L 3 as text only. I don't need 3D accelerated anythings to run a few simple xterms and load monitoring, but not having X at all is an upgrade stopper. I'm running radeon, but more than a few systems which ran well on FC9 need to use VESA modes or even a laptop a VNC. The support for ATI and Nvidia hardware only a few years old is spotty at best.
Good suggestion, though, he won't get any help here.
I am finding it hard to deal with as RPMFusion and Fedora are two seperate thing but when it blocks a update then yes I do think it is a Fedora issue.
Anyway I have waiting to do
The problem is that there is a kmod but instead of 195.36.31-2 the label for the new kmod 195.36.31-1
This is confusing as the driver does not end with -1 but a -2
Thanks for agreeing anyway
