Created attachment 399048 [details] xorg.conf This is the xorg.conf used in both kernels (3.6.31.5-127 and 3.6.32.9-70)
I have other system work fine with the last kernel (2.6.32.9-70) and last driver NVIDIA (195.36.08-1), used the same install procedure and updates. The system is: DELL precision 380 with NVIDIA Quadro FX 570 (dual screen).

Today I apply new updates from fedora repositories: Among this updates, news changes: nvidia driver 195.36.08-1 no more exists and it show nvidia drivers 190.53.3 (akmod and kmod for kernel 2.6.31.5-127 / 2.6.32.9-70). Same problem with kernel 2.6.32.9-70. With kernel 2.6.31.5-127 work fine.
