Another Fedora Kernel Update

I followed suggestions on the Fedora forums - now when rebooting after a kernel update, the fastest way to re-run the NVIDIA driver install (and thus a recompile of kernel interfaces):
  • at grub boot menu, "a" to alter kernel options;
  • add '3' (without quotes) to the end of the line to come up init 3
  • login as root, and run the NVIDIA installer (with the --upate option, it will check if a newer NVIDIA driver is available from the nvidia ftp site, and get it)
  • reboot (actually, could probably just init 5...)
That's it. Not great, but simple enough, short of creating an automated script to just re-compile the kernel interface. This will do for now.
