Hi, folks,
Well, still more fun (for values of fun approaching zero):
1. Went to install CUDA 9.0... well, gee, there is *no* CUDA 9.0.
Even though I installed the 9 repo, all that I get is 8. I've
used their webform, and an waiting on a reply.
2. I remove all nvidia packages.
3. It appears that the kmod-nvidia is what I need; that's what
nvidia-detect says. So I try to install... bzzt, thank you
for playing.
If your intention is to use current NVIDIA drivers, you could try the
download from their website. I´ve had good success with installing them
directly from the download NVIDIA provides.
I know we aren´t supposed to do that, but after using that for years and
then using distribution-provided NVIDIA drivers, I went back to the NVIDIA
package because that was far more trouble-free and continues to be so.
When you get a new kernel and when some libraries are updated, you need to
reinstall the NVIDIA drivers, but I can live with that.

Well, no it's not complete, and it's trying to install in the *previous*
kernel, not the running one.
