Hi, I can't seem to figure out how to get into a different runlevel so that I can install my nVidia GeForce drivers. Please Help!

Hi njackson256,

First up, I don't recommend using the drivers from nVIDIA. See this thread for the why-for. https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedo.../msg01565.html

To install the nVIDIA drivers, use the livna.org repository and it will do it right the first time, and take care of the dependency h*ll for you. Let me get this up, and I'll edit in some more links that will help you.

Dan

EDIT: These should help a lot.
