Here is a Ati/Nvidia driver installation howto. I wrote it again to prevent confusion with my previous post FC5 Test 2: Nvidia Finally Successful, as well as to explain why we are having problems with the installation of non-gpl kernel modules on FC5.
The kernel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 shipped with FC5 disallows the loading of any non-GPL modules.
Hence to use Ati/Nvidia drivers, you should update your kernel.
It is recommended that for Fedora Core 5, Ati or Nvidia drivers should be pulled down from livna repositories.
To start using the rpm.livna.org repository in yum, simply install the livna-release-5 rpm package:
rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm
Till now (25/03/2006), there are no kernel updates in fedora-core repositories. But soon it will be. That is why we will be using the kernel available on, updates-testing repositories.
For Ati users:
yum --enablerepo=livna-testing --enablerepo=updates-testing install kmod-fglrx
For Nvidia users:
yum --enablerepo=livna-testing --enablerepo=updates-testing install kmod-nvidia
Finally, reboot :)
If you have a smp kernel, use kmod-smp-nvidia instead of kmod-nvidia.

FC5: Ati or Nvidia Drivers

If you're on x86_64 you'll need to rpmbuild the fglrx kernel module from the SRPM
If you have a smp kernel, use kmod-nvidia-smp instead of kmod-smp-nvidia
True :)
Thanks for the additional info :)
Been waiting for this to hit the testing repos... thanks for the heads up.
Andy,
for that I get:
[phil@nori ati]$ rpmbuild --rebuild fglrx-kmod-8.23.7-3.2.6.16_1.2069_FC5.src.rpm
Installing fglrx-kmod-8.23.7-3.2.6.16_1.2069_FC5.src.rpm
error: Architecture is not included: x86_64

I got the nvidia driver, but Im getting about half nominal performance and glitchy graphics flashing textures and the whole nine yards, any clue why?

Anyone get this successfully on a x86_64?
i'm getting this while trying to build the rpm.
[root@alupihan SPECS]# rpmbuild --rebuild --target `uname -m` fglrx-kmod.spec
Installing fglrx-kmod.spec
error: fglrx-kmod.spec cannot be installed
Worked great on my Inspiron 6000 with ATI X.300 - thanks for that. The only thing I had to do is edit xorg.conf and change Driver to "fglrx".
I'm on an smp machine, and running what is given here gives the error:
No Match for argument: kmod-smp-nvidia
Does this module exist yet?
use kmod-nvidia-smp instead of kmod-smp-nvidia
I'm trying to install NVidia drivers on FC5, and I ran
yum --enablerepo=livna-testing --enablerepo=updates-testing install kmod-nvidia
and rebooted. When I tried to run an example from OpenSceneGraph (osgviewer cow.osg) instead of displaying the graphics, it says:
RenderSurface::realize() :0.0 has no GLX extension
I also looked at http://rpm.livna.org which said "simply" execute:
yum install kmod-nvidia
which was simple, but gave me the same result about no GLX extension. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
hi.. i install kmod-fglrx, reboot and gnome doesnt start...its freeze in the first load of the windows manager...i got an error something like, dbus session service can`t start, start manualy with eval 'dbus...... i did that but no luck...
any ideas?
Has anyone successfully installed the ATI drivers on FC5 x86_64? I can't seem to find any info anywhere for a successful installation.
There's a problem with using x86_64 at the moment. I think the nVidia ones are working but not the ATi ones.
Track the bug's progress here...

I've installed this to specification using:
Linux sour 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5 #1 Tue Mar 28 03:38:34 EST 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
It didnt change xorg.conf I had to manually insert fglrx in driver ... after that X doesnt load. I have to change the driver back to radeon to make it load X. Ideas?
Same problem as the guy above:

Trying to get FC5 running on a Toshiba M50/900 laptop with ATI Radeon xpress 200M graphics. Did the install with linux vesa option and have been stuck with 800x600 graphics since. Updating the kernel and installing the fglrx drivers made no difference - still 800x600 and looking shocking at login prompt. It then hangs on gnome startup after loading window manager. Tried editing xorg.conf to driver = fglrx but still no joy.
HELP - please - someone.
Thought FC5 was supposed to be easy and linux for all.
I'm having the same problem with the hanging on 'loading window manager'..
after a couple of minutes it logs in though, but without any window borders around my applications.
tried glxgears, failes to load (error while trying to run /usr/liv/ati-fglrx/libGL.so.1 or something), don't know if that has anything to do with it though.. but I'm freaking out
Same issue as Anonymous at 4/01/2006 01:57:29 PM- no window boarders
glxgears: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/ati-fglrx/libGL.so.1: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied
Just disable SElinux.I had same problem as you and had disabled it and now it works like a charm.
I myself did successfully install the ati driver in FC5, but with SELinux=Disabled
Ok - ta for the SElinux suggestion. Works a treat. Had to update xorg.conf and change the driver line to driver "fglrx" also add a non-std modeline to the monitor section to push the full 1280x768 resolution out of the laptop lcd panel.
ModeLine "1280x768" 80.1 1280 1344 1480 1680 768 769 772 795
Calculated by:
http://www.dkfz-heidelberg.de/spec/linux/modeline/
And explained here:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=83973
This modeline also did the trick with the VESA driver.
So - next logical question - how do we get it to work with SElinux enabled ?
SElinux enabled and ati drivers see:
http://www.stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_5_installation_notes.html#nVidia
For some reason, setsebool is an unknown command on my fedora desktop :/
It is working for my NVidia. Actually, they moved the package to norma livna (no testing). So the line should be: yum --enablerepo=livna install kmod-nvidia.
and yum --enablerepo=livna install kmod-nvidia-smp for smp kernels. good look.
it didn't work on my ati radeon, should i type anything else after the yum --enablerepo=livna install kmod-fglrx-smp because in the messeage it said nothing to do.
thanks.
selinux disabled, fglrx driver loads, kernel updated but X11 stills hang when starting. Anyone have an idea?

Same problem here.
Used Yum livna-testing repo to install and then disabled SELinux. After reboot, driver loads, but crashes after 1 second; Kernel panic
On a clean x86_64 FC5-install with Radeon X850 XT
Do not use a normal Term, su to root will not work you have to use a super user term.
Click F then System then click on More Applecations then (Term Program - Super User Mode). After that everything should work fine. Here is a full list of what to do http://stanton-finley.net/fedora_cor...es.html#nVidia
Here is my post about
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2224637#post2224637
you may need to recompile the kernel to switch the agpgart support from compiled into kernel into modular so that fglrx may use its own and therefore enable direct rendering
It worked for nVidia 7300 LE. Thanks a lot. It didn't update xorg.conf so I have to manually edit it to change the driver to "nvidia".
I'm new to Fedora and followed the above instructions with this result.
[root@localhost ian]# rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm
Retrieving http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm
error: skipping http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm - transfer failed - Unknown or unexpected error
Segmentation fault
Never used yum before how do I fix this.
im trying to install the proper proprietry nvidia drivers on FC5 as i was unable to play opengl based games with the Livna drivers. the proprietry drivers are a pain though as they work emmideately after install but if i restart they dissapear and X is not able to find the Nvidia module. is FC5 removing them upon bootup or something ? cos in that case im just gonna change to FC4 !
Greetings,
I have a thinkpad x30 with Fedora Core 5 in it. After install it recognized the direct rendering, but very slow. So I decided to make the "yum --enablerepo=livna-testing --enablerepo=updates-testing install kmod-fglrx" to speed it up... The result: Ot no longer recognizes my direct rendering. Please, I need urgently to restore it, how can I solve this problem? Thanks !
the yum is not installing my nvidia driver.. the add or remove program couldn't be opened it says "Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: livna. Please verify its path and try again" which i think is the hindrance since the mirror sites couldn't be opened. any solutions please
