Hi Roo,
I understand I need the nVidia proprietary drivers for compiz to work with my card, so I installed the package from Freshrpms.net. But it looks like the kernel refuses to load the drivers. At least I say a message saying so during boot and could not start X.
At a guess: it's likely to be the same i586 kernel installed with i686 devel packages installation screw up that's hitting... oh... lots and lots of people.
Here's my uname -a: Linux desktop 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 15:11:19 EDT 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
And rpm -qva | grep kernel:
kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 kernel-headers-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 kernel-doc-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 kernel-xen-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
How can I check I have the correct packages for my architecture?
Besides, the problem seems to be xen-related (see my other message, I moved from can't load kernel module to blank screen after statx). How to disable it?
