This is an rpmfusion nvidia kernel module problem, not a fedora one. Nothing we can do about that, sorry. (In reply to Rex Dieter from comment #1) > This is an rpmfusion nvidia kernel module problem, not a fedora one. > Nothing we can do about that, sorry. ok thanks - I will try and go via that route. As for the warning you're seeing (which is NOT what is causing your transaction to fail): > ** Found 1 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), 'yum check' output follows: > kde-settings-kdm-19-23.1.fc19.noarch is a duplicate with kde-settings-kdm-19-23.fc19.noarch see bug #989145. (In short: It is already fixed in the new package, but the problem is with uninstalling the old package (even on upgrades), so we cannot really fix it. You have to remove the old package with "rpm -e --noscripts kde-settings-kdm-19-23.1.fc19.noarch". But as I said, the real problem is the kmod-nvidia one.) Hi thanks for the pointers, I did an rpm -qa | grep kde-settings-kdm to see what I have installed and it gave me two answers, kde-settings-kdm-19-23.fc19.noarch kde-settings-kdm-19-23.1.fc19.noarch Isn't kde-settings-kdm-19-23.1.fc19.noarch newer than the kde-settings-kdm-19-23.fc19.noarch, or have a missed the point ??, so if that's true, would I not be better off getting rid of the older package. again have I missed the point and the .1 version is the erroneous package ? I appreciate that this isn't your problem and I realise your time is valuable, but I don't what to commit to something that would or could stop me from using my system. I am just not sure as to how to proceed now, but if I don't resolve this, the problem will just reappear somewhere later down the line for me. I would appreciate some advise please. I did try to create an account to report the bug on the rpm-fusion site but I have had nothing back from the site as to activating my account.... Uh, yes, I made a mistake there, you should indeed remove the older of the duplicate packages, not the newer one. The linked bug report contains the correct workaround: rpm -e --noscripts kde-settings-kdm-19-23.fc19 Sorry for the confusion. |
