Hi,
I just update from F35 to F37 and everything is fine except I noticed
that instead of the Nvidia from RPMFusion it is using nouveau.
In fact the nvidia module is missing and wasn't built by akmod.
I think the problem is that it started with kernel 6.1.7 which is
very recent but it seems it's missing the kernel-headers -the most
recent in the repositories is 6.1.5- and akmod needs that.
There is something strange going on or I just should wait for the
headers to appear? Or maybe install 6.1.5 and use that?
The headers are only updated when the kernel interface changes now.
This has been the case for many releases of fedora. What I am saying
is that the problem is not the headers, so you can eliminate it from
your list of possibilities.
But akmods still needs them to recompile the driver or not?
man akmods ?
I tried both "akmods -force" and "akmods -akmod nvidia", this one answers with
Checking kmods exist for 6.1.7-200.fc37.x86_64 [ OK ]
which I do not understand.
$ ls /var/cache/akmods/
akmods.log nvidia/
$ ls /var/cache/akmods/nvidia/
525.78.01-1-for-6.1.5-200.fc37.x86_64.log

Theses are the logs and build results on my system. You can look at the log of
the build and check it for errors.
I have only the rpm and log for the 6.0.11 and 6.0.12 from last month when I had
the last update of F35.
If you have the RPM build sucessfully and installed then its something
else that is stopping this working.
What is the version of hardware that you have?
Is this the correct driver for your hardware?
Does https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA have anything to help?
I have a "GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Mobile" which is still supported according to
RPMFusion.
dnf.log has a lot of stuff but there is something about trying to download
kernel-headers but finding only 6.1.15. Maybe this is enough if you have also
that kernel and all the stuff but I have just upgraded to F37 and 6.1.17 is the
only recent one....
I have no idea if this is same sort of a bug or just a weird corner case no one
considered.
I'll instal kmod-nvidia and probably it will fix the problem; maybe when I am up
to speed with a kernel with headers I'll decide if I want it or not...
Thanks for the help.
