F40 Progress with nvidia 470xx

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have posted earlier about this driver, which is not claimed to support wayland. It seemed to me that the kde support group, in abandoning x11, had chosen to create a dev-playground with little commitment to user-support.

After almost-daily dnf upgrades my F40-only box does now appear to be usable with the low-end nvidia GT710 hardware and the xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-470xx package from the rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing repo.

This is true only if I install plasma-workspace-x11 and choose the plasma-x11 desktop. Choosing plasma-wayland looks workable but fills /tmp with plasmashell crash reports.

At present my grub command line gives nouveau, without hardware decoding, following the rpmfusion nvidia howto. This is ok for me, but maybe a different grub line could restore hardware support.

I haven't recently experimented with my Windows 10 dual-boot box, with a similar video card. Last time I tried it, it consistently froze quite late in the boot sequence.

HTH,

John P
