I just installed the latest FC5 test release on my Dell Lattitude D800. It has an NVIDIA NV28 [GeForce4 Ti 4200 G0AGP 8x] video card. Up to this point, I've been using the NVIDIA video drivers, but for some reason, with the 2.6.15-1.1881_FC5 kernel, I can't seem to built the drivers any longer. 


I'm sorry I don't have a solution for you, however I can at least tell you
that you are not alone:

It seems to be a common issue with FC5 at the moment. So at least you know
it will be fixed soon enough if enough people experience it.


Heh...  Guess that's what I get for trying to run a "test" release. ;-)

On the good side, the "nv" drivers are functional, if not pretty.

Now I just have to see how to get the internal Broadcom wireless card working... (I see plenty of references to a FW driver that needs to be installed, but no mention of WHERE to get it from.)

I'll keep an eye on the forum you mention.

Thanks!
