Comment 2 David W. Legg 2006-03-17 14:40:49 UTC
I get the same with the x86_64 kernel.
Suggest changing arch to All (from i686).

This probably affects all NVIDIA graphics card users, doesn't it?

This is a kernel bug:

Comment 4 Dave Jones 2006-03-17 18:54:32 UTC
Will be fixed in the first errata kernel for FC5, which should be available
shortly after release.

Everyone, please try the latest test kernel from here in order to use Closed
proprietary nvidia modules.
