Did I just miss the howto for installing nVidia drivers (from RPMFusion)
on F14 64-bit?
Seems to be a problem with the install and a script failing to launch
(selinux?) to load the module.
Nothing here or on the (seemingly less frequented) RPMfusion lists I can
find. Can someone point me in the right direction? Looking for the
correct incantation...
Nouveau is much improved, but I still need the nVidia drivers for a few
things I run that are otherwise not well supported.
Cheers,
Chris

If it was an SELinux issue, you should see an AVC in

According to the Howto on RPMFusion website
(http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia), it says you need to "lower your
system protection so SElinux doesn't prevent the driver to load" by
running this:
setsebool -P allow_execstack on
But it also says that this should be done automatically, when you
install the driver...

...Yup. That definitely looks like it. Added myself to the CC list.
Thanks!

I guess I wasn't explicit in saying in my OP that I had loaded the
experimental Mesa DRI drivers. But I had indeed already done that.
Compiz doesn't work without them at all, and barely works with them
loaded.
Like I wrote before, Nouveau is much improved, but frankly it still has
a very long way to go.
