> The video drivers on gluon04 and gluon05 were replaced this afternoon by Paul L. and Sherman W. in an attempt to resolve the issues we've been seeing with the desktops since upgrading to RHEL7. The original driver was the nouveau driver that comes with the Linux kernel. The newly installed driver comes from Nvidia.
