It depends on what broke.  If what's broke wasn't modified, then I feel
justified in asking you!

All I'm doing here is asking if this message is specific to the generic
Fedora Kernel or not!  People sure are going out of their way to avoid
saying yes or no.

Please tell me how my question differs from all of the very useful help
people get using the nVidia proprietary video drivers) which I also use
on my desktop machine).

Not until I can find out if this problem exists in the generic Fedora
Kernels!  I'm guessing that this broke between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20, but
until I'm sure, is it too much to just ASK?

Yes, I'm aware of that, but I'll go through my vendor before I bother him.
