Hi list,
I'm on C8.1 and I'm trying to install NVIDIA driver from
rpmfusion-nonfree repository but it returns:
package kmod-nvidia-3:440.82-2.el8.x86_64 requires
kmod-nvidia-4.18.0-147.el8.x86_64 >= 3:440.82-2.el8, but none of the
providers can be installed
- conflicting requests

The package is looking for an el8.1 kernel to meet it's dependencies and
can not find one. C8.2 has now been released, and as a result all 8.1
packages got moved to vault. If you enable the vault repo, yum will be
able to find the kernel package it is looking for to meet the
dependencies. However, if you do that you will have to boot to an old
C8.1 series kernel for your nvidia drivers to work.
kmod-nvidia-4.18.0-147.el8.x86_64-3:440.82-2.el8.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest'
to use not only best candidate packages)
and uname -r returns:
4.18.0-193.6.3.el8_2.x86_64
Yes, you are running the latest 8.2 series kernel.
Seems that RPMFusion needs an update. Waiting for this there is a way to
install this package without fall in problems?
Thank you in advance.
Yes, seems that repo is stale. They need to release packages built
against el8.2, which at least for RHEL have been out for 2 months now. A
newer stable nvidia driver (440.100) was also released recently. The
(not ideal) workaround is as stated above - enable CentOS vault repo and
boot into an older el8.1 series kernel for now until they update packages.
I would normally recommend you try the nvidia drivers from elrepo, but I
have a vested interest as I maintain them
