I know the ELrepo nvidia packages (for RHEL) have a nvidia-detect package (and corresponding yum plug-in) that makes it easy to install the appropriate package, giving you some automation.

Perhaps someone needs to port this over to Fedora, dnf, and rpmfusion?


I Posted this link earlier. It's not a difficult google; but here it is again. I've copied the equivalent section, and expanded a link within it but anyone hoping to use the rpmfusion packages for nvidia really ought to be aware of this page. I'm not sure about Wayland, though...

https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA#Determining_your_card_model

{{{

Determining your card model

NVIDIA has several driver series, each of which has different hardware support. To determine which driver you need to install, you'll first need to find your graphics card model.

If you don't know it, open a Terminal (Applications > System Tools > Terminal) and type:

/sbin/lspci | grep -e VGA

You can also check the supported chips section:

https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/495.44/README/supportedchips.html

and see which series is recommended for you card, then install the appropriate driver series. Please remember that you need additional steps for optimus.
