[ATrpms-users] Nvidia Legacy

[Fedor Pikus]

I took the group's advice and upgraded one of my FC4 systems to FC6
using DVD and then smart. Most of the packages eventually upgraded,
but few problems remain.

The worst one is the NVidia drivers. The system has an old card
supported by Legacy drivers. No problem, ATRpms has nvidia-legacy RPM.
Which depends on nvidia-graphics7184. Which needs a kmdl package.
Which does not exist for any of FC6 kernels.

In general, seems like not all repositories caught up with FC6. After
several packages did not upgrade, I did a search on pbone.net and
found that acroread, xosview, and alsaplayer exist in various
repositories which haven't moved to FC6 yet. Seems like there is a
"timing gap" where some repositories are dropping support for FC4 and
older and other are not moving beyond FC4 or FC5.
