Is there a way to use "Nouveau" (open source Nvidia) driver in CentOS 5 ?
"nv" seems to support only the lowest resolutions thru the dvi output (NV44 chip), and I don't like the idea of installing propiertary Nvidia drivers. This way I came to Nouveau.
I had a look at some Fedora rpms, but they needed something CentOS obviously doesn't have:
# rpm -ivh xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-2.1.6-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm kernel-drm-nouveau = 10 is needed by xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-2.1.6-1.fc8.x86_64
