I don't see anything out of the ordinary in yours. You might want to poke around in xorg.conf and see if anything looks awry. I usually run nvidia-settings and see what the xorg.conf file looks like that that app creates. When you go into X Server Display Configuration and click on Save to X configuration File (now be careful it usually has to be run as root to actually save settings but I don't know if that's been fixed in F12, last time I ran it as user it didn't save), it allows you to view the xorg.conf file it will be saving. I compare that to what I have in xorg.conf and make changes if needed. But I have a dual monitor setup, so I need a custom xorg.conf file. You can always make a backup copy of xorg.conf just in case you need to put it back the way it was. I hate messing with xorg, but sometimes it's worth it.

taking the vga cheat out fixed the video mode issue. Once I took that out and rebooted. It went straight into the boot sequence.

Yeah... Playing with xorg didn't seem like such a good situation. I think F12 may actually boot slightly faster without the pretty graphics. And i'm pretty sure i'm fine with that.

But akmod-nvidia is still in rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing which has to be explicitly enabled in order to get it. And Rpmfusion's documentation ( http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia) still doesn't mention this.

I suppose the documentation will take time to catch up. I thought Leigh's how-to was already changed for F12, but I see it still points to the rpmfusion-rawhide repos. I won't need to try and install akmods till I do a fresh install on Wednesday, let's just wait and see what happens. When I get access to my F12 box later, I'm going to check and see what apps the new repos point to, If we need the testing repos, then we'll add them, But until the release, I'm not going to add or change any repos because I want to watch the natural flow of changes from RC to release.
