Just swapped nouveau out for the nvidia driver from rpmfusion following https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA. Basically I did dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx akmod-nvidia-340xx "kernel-devel- uname-r == $(uname -r)" dnf update -y Reboot and startx and only one (of 2) monitor was working, the other was blank. I ran nvidia-config and this created a /etc/X11/xorg.conf, then restarted the X server and both monitors are up and running and I'm running the nvidia drivers: 28) root:~> lsmod | grep nvidia nvidia 10563584 24 drm 348160 4 nvidia 29) root:~> lsmod | grep nouveau 30) root:~> Now the problems: 30) root:~> glxinfo name of display: :0.0 X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 154 (NV-GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 4 () Resource id in failed request: 0x4a00009 Serial number of failed request: 56 Current serial number in output stream: 56 31) root:~> glxgears X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 154 (NV-GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 4 () Resource id in failed request: 0x4a00002 Serial number of failed request: 38 Current serial number in output stream: 38 32) root:~> xdriinfo libGL is too old. 33) root:~> I think all this has to do with libGL. 34) root:~> ldd /usr/bin/glxgears | grep libGL libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib64/nvidia-340xx/libGL.so.1 (0x00007f55a0e8c000) so that points to the nvidia libGL.

So I can't uninstall the libGL provided by fedora, it would take out too many packages with it, including the X server. Can I choose which libGL to use with alternatives somehow? How do switch everything to use the nvidia libGL? I assume there are people there who are using the nvidia driver right now, some maybe using the rpmfusion rpms. Can someone post which libGL they have installed on their system and how they got the whole thing to work?
