I upgraded 3 Nvidia equipped boxes from FC1 to FC2 and had no problem.
I just followed the usual kernel upgrading procedure.
But now, I've spent all day to day trying to get the Nvidia drivers to
run (they'll load - at least there are no errors or warnings in
Xorg.0.log - but I get an unresponsive grey screen) on a machine I
upgraded from RH9 to FC2. I'm about ready to pitch the damn thing out
the window...
I upgraded Nvidia from FC1 to FC2 with no problems. However, when I
switch RH8 or RH9 to FC1, I performed a clean installed. Yeah my idea
stinks but I feel RH9 to FC2 is a major jump. It is hard to catch all
the upgrade issues. FC1 to FC2 appears to be a smaller jump. Try the
clean install first before the pitching action.
