nForce 2 Drivers

I've just finished downloading FC4 and am gonna install on the weekend. I've got the nForce2 Chipset/LAN/audio driver package from Nvidia's site also but do i need to install it? Or is the drivers that come with the 2.6.X kernel good enough?

You will need to install it from nvidia's site. Either that or setup the livna repo and download it from them using yum.

yeah pretty much because I think the FC4 nvidia drivers are slightly buggy but don't quote me on that.
