i'm sad because nothing work with nvidia driver installation steps.

here is what i did:
1st test:
su
yum update kernel\* selinux-policy\*
reboot
su
yum --nogpgcheck install
http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-stable.noarch.rpm
yum install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686

i get the following error message:
GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 14] Could not open/read
file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-non-fedora-18-x86_64

i got the same error message if i use: yum install kmod-nvidia
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686

2nd test
/sbin/lspci | grep VGA

i see my graphic card is a NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT

next i typed: yum install akmod-nvidia

once again the same error message :-(

i search on internet and i just found that such package has no key... so
what next ? :(
thx

Alain
