Thanks John. I hadn't thought about looking in the repo for that package, I was expecting it to be in the group package options. I'll install that even if for no other reason other reason than I have never liked Wayland. I use the 550 drivers so Wayland support is not an issue, I just don't like it.On 18/05/2024 03:17, Stephen Morris wrote:On 17/5/24 22:43, John Pilkington wrote:How did you get Xorg working with Plasma as I can't see any group in dnf to install that?On 17/05/2024 13:08, Francis.Montagnac@xxxxxxxx wrote:Hi.

For newer cards, users sometimes end up with unsigned drivers. This usually means they rebooted too quickly (during thewindow after the module was compiled but before it was signed.).Or before the depmod done by the postintall of the kmod-nvidia-KERNEL RPM finishes.I have had the reboot happen too too quickly before but in this case I had no control over the reboot process, it happened automatically whenthe installs were completed.Right: more precisely as soon as dnf system-upgrade finishes. As said earlier on this list: I made a proposal to prevent that: kmod failed to load after upgrade Fedora using dnf system-upgrade https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2011120 still waiting for approval.This morning 'dnf upgrade' on one of my boxes installed the 470.239.06-2 versions of akmod and kmod, while the other box, having the -1 nersions, said there was 'nothing to do'; then packagekit found them and did a preliminary reboot before install. Both boxes now have the -2 versions installed and running. The process does take several minutes - and I did an "akmods --rebuild --force" just to make sure.F40 with plasma-workspace-x11 does seem to be working well now for me, and can use vdpau.The path to where I am now has been complicated, mainly because my nvidia hardware is 'legacy' and its 470xx driver has not claimed to support Wayland. Under Wayland all cpus max out, and keyboard/mouse are almost unusable. YMMV.dnf info plasma-workspace-x11 It's in the Fedora 'updates' repo.
I have a 50GB /boot so I have plenty of space for 5 kernels + any rescue kernels that exist.The other thing I didn't like with the F40 upgrade was in F39 I had dnf configured to retain 5 kernels, but the F40 upgrade reset that back to 3.My system has 450 MB /boot, space for only 2 kernels + rescue.
