Is there a reason why your xorg.conf is set to vesa ?

Is this rawhide install a F11 upgrade?

If so did you remove all the rpmfusion driver rpm's including livna-config-display


rpm -e livna-config-display

[phoenixpb]

nvidia-settings works now but i have no window decorator (windows are placed in upper left corner .... cant maximise or minimise)
fusion-icon hangs and makes the system back to login screen
any idea ?

thanks guys :)

rpm -qa |grep compiz


and replace any 0.7.8 version with 0.8.3 versions from my repo ( i.e libcompizconfig , compizconfig-python & compizconfig-backend-kconfig ) , they are compatible with 0.8.2 ;)

You can't expect X to be completely stable as the nvidia driver doesn't support the Xorg server ABI .
Kvirc crashes my system back to the login screen as well.
We will need to wait for nvidia .
