Hi: I've just moved my Fedora 17 box from ATrpms to rpmfusion. I had a problem with OpenGL and nVidia 304.64, which I think I had seen before with the ATrpms build but had worked around by reverting to 304.51 That's no longer easy. I'm using a GeForce 7500 LE card, not vdpau capable.

The packages as installed load modules from X.org instead of those from nVidia. The driver seems ok after editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf like this:

Section "Files"
#       ModulePath   "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
        ModulePath   "/usr/lib64/nvidia/xorg"
#       ModulePath   "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions"
        ModulePath   "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
        FontPath     "/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1"
EndSection

as suggested here:

And I have another unrelated observation:

The '*config-smart-17-2.x86_64' package in nonfree-updates claims to apply to nonfree but is named free and conflicts with the one in the 'free-updates' repo.

Cheers
