I can run without vga=normal, but if I run without nomodeset, the graphics
never starts and I have to restart the machine.
But even without vga=normal, I get the same behavior.
Sorry, I can't help you figure out what's wrong there. I completely
avoid any computers containing NVidia graphics... If you don't have any
need for the NVidia part, you might be able to disable it in the BIOS.
I don't know why the Intel part isn't working for modesetting.
If you really want to use the proprietary NVidia driver, get it from
rpmfusion. At least then, it's easier to revert if necessary and it's
much more likely to work.
Do you mean:
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia
?
That would be included. You want one of the akmod-nvidia* packages.
Since it's a recent chipset, it would most likely be the "akmod-nvida"
package. (Don't forget to install "kernel-devel" as well.) The problem
is that you will need to clean any mess left behind by the NVidia
installer you tried to run before you install the package.
