OMG! I knew I should of taken notes. :rolleyes: I did my install on fedora 14. I'm sure I could put together something, on what I did.

I've done it on RHEL and CentOS (Fedora is much the same).
Trigggl, have you ever done a Minimal Ubuntu Install? I just found it existed! I think this could be a better platform for an Ubuntu GPU cruncher. Maybe not as compact as Gentoo but decidedly better than a full Ubuntu install.

My Dell came with a full Ubuntu install. When I switched to 64-bit, I did a full install.
On my two main computers (Dell with upgraded processor and new pc with old overclocked processor) I have a full Gentoo install. The twins running Gentoo at DrPop's place and the PS3 are the closest things I've done to a minimal install, but I put the Gnome window manager on all 3.
Well I had to reinstall fedora, since I didn't install the 64 bit version first. To get nvidia drivers to work with boinc, this is what I did.
Fedora core 15
Login as root
Config yum to use RPM Fusion
rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/...ble.noarch.rpm

Now Nvidia drivers are running
change the following in /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=permissive
change this next in the start section just before the daemon statement of /etc/init.d/boinc-client
sleep 6
export DISPLAY=:0.0
xhost +
reboot
I'll have a Coke.
