YAFHT - Yet another Fedora 5 how to

[pdesalvia@ic]

I got the current release of the NVIDIA drivers to work on FC5.

Run the NVIDIA .run package. Then run this script:

#!/bin/bash

cp /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/nv* /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers
cp /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/* /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.1.0.8762
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/tls/libnvidia-tls.so.1
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/lib/libGL.so.1

and...voila'
