Help installing Installing nVidia Drivers and 32bit OpenGL

[Jeff91]

So I found this guide - http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showth...t=nvidia+howto

For installing the nVidia drivers from rpmfusion - what version do they install? I know while using Ubuntu I see a good performance increase while using the beta 190.18 nvidia drivers (over the 180.xx and 185.xx) so I would like to use those on Fedora as well.

In order to install the binary drivers I know I need to grab extra packages (on Ubuntu these where build-essential and linux-headers-`uname -r`) What packages do I need to install first on F11 to properly install the latest nVidia drivers?

Also I know Ubuntu needed an extra package (ia32-libs) for nVidia OpenGL 32bit compatibility libraries to install properly - is this also needed on Fedora?

Thanks,
~Jeff

AFAIK the version number of nvidia drivers can be guessed from version of kmod-nvidia.

For installing binary drivers, you need kernel-devel package.

It installed just fine (thanks for the link any who) I just needed to install binutils, gcc, and kernel-devel via yum.
