Problems with Fedora Core 2 and NVIDIA 6106 Linux Drivers

[Mike Ramirez]

Hi.

Had the same problem as you guys on another machine with the A7N8X-X
MB.  even the nv drivers wouldn't work only vesa.  Once I properly
configured my Monitor with help of the recent thread titled Monitors I
was able to find my Monitor and able to configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf
correctly and now it works.  I suggest making sure you have configured
your monitor properly.

Kernel - 2.6.6-1.235.2.3
Drivers - nVidia 6106
