-==== NVIDIA GeForce4 MX ====
-The X11 video-nv driver is replaced by the video-nouveau as the default graphics driver for NVIDIA video cards. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NouveauAsDefault for more information.
-Unfortunately nouveau doesn't work for the NVIDIA video card used in the Power Mac G4 MDD with dual 867 Mhz CPU. You need to switch back to nv.
-<BR>
-Check that the nv driver is installed. If not install it:
-<pre>
-# yum install xorg-x11-drv-nv
-</pre>
-Now you need to disable the nouveau driver.
-Check that the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf exists. If not create it:
-<pre>
-# vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
-</pre>
-Add:
-<pre>
-blacklist nouveau
-</pre>
-Check that mkinitrd is installed. If you have a Fedora minimal installation you need to install it.
-<pre>
-# yum install mkinitrd
-</pre>
-Create new initrd:
-<pre>
-# mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)
-</pre>
-Reboot System:
-<pre>
-# reboot
-</pre>
-Re-configure you display:
-<pre>
-# system-config-display --reconfig
-</pre>
