The question is, will this drive the card? > No. Your card is too old. You'd have to upgrade your card to use newer drivers. If you get a Turing or newer (GTX 1600 or RTX 2000 or newer) card, then you can either choose to use the latest proprietary NVIDIA driver or the new Nouveau+NVK stack built into the operating system. However your current card is so old that it probably works reasonably okay with nouveau too. The troublesome cards where you *must* use the proprietary driver are the GTX 900 and the GTX 1000 cards. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! -- _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
