I installed 173.14.05 in a F8 system and it is running fine.

Was it from ATrpms?

What version did you have before the upgrade? Have you installed it using nividia installer?

Thanks for the reply.

I realized after I sent it that I didn't give much info.





I removed all nvidia rpms, then did a

yum install nvidia-graphics173.14.05-173.14.05-98

That is when I got the I/O problems with /dev/nvidia0

Then the second was after removing all nvidia rpms again,

yum install nvidia-graphics169.12-169.12-97

That is when I got the libglx problems

Then I removed all nvidia rpms again then did a

yum install nvidia-graphics100.14.19-100.14.19-92.fc8

which then worked.

I currently have installed

nvidia-graphics100.14.19-libs-100.14.19-92.fc8
nvidia-graphics169.09-libs-169.09-95.fc8
nvidia-graphics100.14.19-100.14.19-92.fc8
nvidia-graphics-helpers-0.0.26-27.fc8
nvidia-graphics-devices-1.0-6.fc8
nvidia-graphics100.14.19-kmdl-2.6.24.7-92.fc8-100.14.19-92.fc8

I am using just the rpms from atrpms. I've have not installed from the nvidia installer. Before, I had a combination of 169.12-25 & 100.14.19, which I didn't write down. This weekend I'll go back through the entire steps again keeping notes after each step so I can document where the problems are.

Ok, so I'm on grugs.  I nuked all nvidia rpms, then did a

yum install nvidia-graphics

I now have

nvidia-graphics169.09-libs-169.09-95.fc8
nvidia-graphics-helpers-0.0.26-27.fc8
nvidia-graphics169.12-kmdl-2.6.24.7-92.fc8-169.12-97.fc8
nvidia-graphics169.12-libs-169.12-97.fc8
nvidia-graphics-devices-1.0-6.fc8
nvidia-graphics-169.12-25
nvidia-graphics169.12-169.12-97.fc8

and all works as advertised.

So, to install the nvidia-graphics173 I need to nuke all & do

yum install nvidia-graphics71.86.01 ??

Thanks.
