Re: [Mageia-dev] NVidia fallback to Nouveau after latest Kernel updates
The latest driver update (urpmi --auto-update => dkms-nvidia-current-295-20-2) fixes the problem, but I had to reboot twice to make it work. JC

I need the proprietary driver working correctly. So I need to know if something is wrong, so I can start repairing (or reporting). -- wobo

This was fixed once, but since the latest kernel updates (3.3.0) - the problem has returned: Since last Cauldron kernel update, I have two nvidia based system which now fallback to nouveau when starting X - stating nvidia cannot be loaded. checking in dmesg - I see that the nouveau driver grabs the card before the nvidia driver can - but trying to remove the nouveau driver wants to remove over 800 packages!
