Re: [SOLVED] installing akmod-nividia on F20 - machine hang after reboot, "Started Builds ..."

Hello,
Thanks for all those who gave an advice.

After running:
yum -y install  kernel-devel
and rebooting the machine, the problem disappears.

It seems to me that the akmod-nvidia rpm should require kernel-devel,
because it is useless without it; so that yum install akmod-nvidia
will also install kernel-devel. The kernel-devel rpm is not part of
the default installation of Fedora 20, and I am sure that other people
encountered this issue.

Regards,
DavidS
