Description Barry Jackson 2012-03-11 21:30:18 CET 
Description of problem:
There is currently no working nvidia173 upstream driver that supports the current Cauldron X11 version, so the system correctly has defaulted to nouveau.
However on each boot the nvidia module attempts to build and fails, which delays the boot.
Assigning to Anssi as requested on IRC.

[baz@jackodesktop ~]$ rpm -qa | grep nvidia
x11-driver-video-nvidia173-173.14.31-1.mga2.nonfree
dkms-nvidia173-173.14.31-1.mga2.nonfree

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

I suspect that this was resolved by Anssi - for me it was solved by removing a package after a chat on irc.

Closing as fixed since duplicate is fixed and I can no longer verify as the hardware involved died.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
