Friends, I desperately need some help or advice. I have been using linux e=
xclusively at home since RH6 and this is by FAR the most frustrated I have =
ever been. Since upgrading to FC5 my system has been all messed up. I hav=
e been struggling with this for two weeks. =0D=0A=0D=0AFC5 ccrma works fin=
e, but I just can't get nvidia drivers working. And it even seems to break=
other things. I have tried rdt and rrt kernels. I have tried building nv=
idia the way I always have. After editing xorg.conf (and loading the modul=
e) it wont start X. even when I change the driver back to "nv", when gnome=
finally starts (takes like 180 sec), it is all messed up and my windows do=
n't have a title bar, they are all fixed to the top of the screen.=0D=0A=0D=
=0AIf I use the regular FC5 kernel I can get the livna kernel module to wor=
k, but then I have no ALSA. =0D=0A=0D=0AI even tried ubuntu, but I could n=
ot get my echoaudio stuff working, even when i built it myself & it loaded =
properly into the kernel (showed up in lsmod), echomixer still said "no ech=
oaudio cards found, sorry". Now I am back on my 8th reinstall of FC5, and =
once again, I am stuck. Right now I am back to rrt kernel, and gnome is al=
l messed up under "nv" and no GLX.=0D=0A=0D=0APlease someone give me some d=
irection. Any solution that gives me nvidia drivers, and realtime kernel, =
and alsa-firmware / alsa-drivers would be great. I had all this working fi=
ne in CCRMA / FC4, so i know it can be done.=0D=0A=0D=0AOne other thing, wh=
en I run the nvidia installer, after it builds, there are a bunch of garble=
d messages spewing across the screen, looks like it has to do with SELinux =
because it is saying "granted" and "denied" and stuff like that. My guess =
is something the nvidia installer is trying to do is running afoul of SELin=
ux and SElinux is not letting the necessary change take place. maybe i wil=
l try disabling SELInux and see if that fixes it. =0D=0A=0D=0Athanks in ad=
vance for any pointers or help. =0D=0A
