nvidia on inspiron

[Patrick Dupre]

Thank John for the suggestion.

I am not sure to answer to your question.
My card ia an ATI Mobility, Radeon x1400 128 MB
I cannot find it in the nvidia list.

Is it too old?

By default, it installs:
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia                    i686    1:319.32-7.fc19
kmod-nvidia-3.9.9-302.fc19.i686.PAE    i686    1:319.32-1.fc19
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs               i686    1:319.32-7.fc19

I also found the following:
