When I try to enable Desktop Effects I get an error message. The error message reads "Desktop Effects Could Not Be Enabled" Anyone have any ideas?

OK, this should be fairly easy to do.
First you need to install an extra software repository so you can download the 3D driver. To do this, launch a terminal (for Gnome it will be
Applications >
Accessories >
Terminal) and type this in:
Code:
su -
<<enter the 'root' password when prompted>>
rpm -Uvh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-6.rpm
yum -y install kmod-nvidia
Now reboot and you should have 3D accelaration, meaning that you should then be able to enable the desktop effects as normal (hopefully anyway). :)
