What would be the process to do this, Ed? That is, how to switch from Nvidia to nouveau?
You don’t need to do anything. That’s what is installed by default, and is part of the Linux kernel.
Thanks, Jonathan. Guess I wasn't clear: how do you switch BACK? Don't I need to remove the Nvidia packages? Is kernel rebuilt by package deletions to remove the Nvidia mods?
At the moment, what are you using?
lsmod | grep nouveau
Will tell you if you're using the nouveau drivers.
Do you have the rpmfusion repos installed?
If so, then all you'll need to do is "dnf install akmod-nvidia-390xx". Then check the file /var/cache/akmods/admods.log to see if
the nvidia modules have been built and installed. Just tail that file. And then reboot.
Every time a new kernel is installed, the latest modules will be built.
To switch back to nouveau, just "dnf erase akmod-nvidia-39xx".
This will revert the changes to the linux boot parameters.
The kernel itself is not touched. It is just that a new module is built for the running kernel.
