Correct; From the comments in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf (from rpmfusion's xorg-x11-drv-nvidia) : # RPM Fusion blacklist for nouveau driver - you need to run as root: # dracut -f /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r) # if nouveau is loaded despite this file. The dracut line will rebuild initramfs for the running kernel, using the current modules.conf + /etc/modprobe.d . You'll likely get some warnings about incomplete support for some modules - this shouldn't be a problem; It's likely the driver or firmware isn't installed because you don't actually have that hardware. The as-shipped initramfs has to support a lot more hardware types. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
