idia drivers, and the 100% CPU problem I have is happening pretty much whenever I go near a web site (see previous post about this). At work my F15 PC with Intel graphics has no such problems. (Generally my home PC is okay, so I should only need to replace the graphics card :-) )

F15 - X at 100% with nVidia

2012-03-19 Thread John Horne
nes I have tried made no difference. I intend to upgrade to F17 when it is released, but I'm wondering if the version of X or nVidia driver at F17 are going to be any better. (I tried the F17 alpha, but there were no rpmfusion drivers for F17, so I had to use nouveau.) Thanks, John.
