Xserver help?

[cenglish]

I have a HP/Compaq ****ing laptop (HP SUCKITH BALLS) and it has a NVIDIA GeForce 8200M G graphics card... This is nice(ish) with windows but I hate Microsoft and want to put Fedora on my laptop... the problem being the Xserver doesn't recognize my card and crashes out... Does any one know were I can get drivers to fix such a problem... NVIDIA doesn't offer linux drivers for this model [actually HP owns the drivers and NVIDIA doesn't offer windows drivers HP does]. It would be greatly appreciated if I could get rid of widows. Thanks

Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit the driver line

Driver "vesa"

This will allow you to access the simple GUI.Then install the livna repository and run

su -
yum -y update
yum -y install kmod-nvidia

I tried that and it failed... Yum couldn't find the package?? I just used a NVIDIA driver that was listed for simmilar cards however, it was discouraged for Mine (hp owns the driver) and it works perfectly.... well my fedora splashscreen has been replaced with one for nvidia
