Hello, guys! I'm trying to install Nvidia driver on my Fedora 25, but I can't verify Xorg version... Does anyone know how to do that?

Yes.. Or what I put

Yes, but I prefer to use sudo less.

Hello, guys! I'm trying to install Nvidia driver on my Fedora 25, but I can't verify Xorg version... Does anyone know how to do that?

1. Enable RPMFusion. 2. sudo dnf install gcc kernel-headers kernel-devel akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs 3. sudo akmods --force 4. sudo dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r) --force 5. Reboot.

And never install drivers using official *.run files.

I have the Mapillary one.

And never install drivers using official *.run files.

I was trying to do that lol Why do you say that?

Because RUN files creates lots of untracked by package manager files and will cause you problems on uninstall or upgrades.

Aah... I didn't know that :/

Thanks! ?

Good news, everyone! Telegram Desktop is now available at RPMFusion repository. I will maintain it. Built from official sources without any static libraries.

Great!

Do you have any suggestion of what can I install instead of the official Nvidia file?

1. Enable RPMFusion. 2. sudo dnf install gcc kernel-headers kernel-devel akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs 3. sudo akmods --force 4. sudo dracut /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r) --force 5. Reboot.

That code is already for installation of the driver?

Yes. It will install NVIDIA driver.

I've been reading some stuff about that and I saw soething about Prime to manage when to use Intel's VGA or Nvidia... Is Prime included on that installation code?

(Sorry, as you can see I'm a noob on that )

NVIDIA Optimus?

Yes

On NVIDIA Optimus you should install Bumblebee: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bumblebee

Don't install driver from RPMFusion on NVIDIA Optimus hardware.

Thanks for the tips, dude! :D

Actually, you don't need Bumblebee. I have nVidia Optimus and it works out of the​ box on F25.

Then just finishing that installation I'd be able to do that?

Or you mean F25 do the management by itself?

I think he want to use proprietary drivers, not opensource.

I have no idea what's the best option actually ?

Yes, I'm able to use both Intel and nVidia outputs with open drivers.

I was going by Nvidia official because it is the official hahaahh

On my desktop with NVIDIA GTX 1070 opensource drivers are very unstable. It hangs whole system. NVIDIA proprietary works fine.

But my hardware is rather old.

I have no idea what's the best option actually ?

Prop are way to go for Gaming / Heavy GPU works in my opinion

I'm on a Dell Vostro 5470 It has a GT 740M

When I google for my model and Nvidia fedora doesn't comeup any good info :/

Another question: the code you posted earlier sudo dnf install gcc kernel-headers kernel-devel akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs is using RPMFusion, isn't it?

yeah! My bad

try bumblebee

I'm before that part yet lol I haven't even installed a driver lol

I'm confused because if the proprietary driver has some problems to update and it's not recomended to use RPMFusion or Negativo17 (the only 2 I know) i'm stuck here D:

Nice sticker

Guys, regarding the new trashbooks at 200 bucks, with atom/celeron 2 GB RAM etc

Is there a cheap model/brand where I can install fedora?

Cheap.. but not a toy

Is there a cheap model/brand where I can install fedora?

Installing fedora in machine would be good at 4 giga ram at least, 2 giga I don't know whether it is enough

Gnome user land consume 1,2 giga byte

What if u wanna run something like blender ?

i have a E5700 with 2GB Memory RAM System Running F25 Workstation (Gnome Desktop)

it's running perfectly fine

I'm before that part yet lol I haven't even installed a driver lol

bumblebee uses modified nvidia drivers

I couldn't install nvidia drivers

Is there a cheap model/brand where I can install fedora?

If USD200 is your budget, you should give a try to used or refurbished ThinkPads on ebay, amazon or lenovo official outlet.

bumblebee uses modified nvidia drivers

I'm reading about that tight now: Do not use the NVidia video drivers from http://rpmfusion.org/, http://negativo17.org/. I’m sure they are fine drivers and I am not trying to criticize them at all. But they DO NOT support or work with bumblebee without modifications.

it's running perfectly fine

I'm not sure whether things gonna work just fine if u run 3 big apps.

Hmmmmm

CentOS minimal or fedora server

CentOS

Ya I kinda wanted to go that route

I'm not sure whether things gonna work just fine if u run 3 big apps.

not sure wat you mean with 3 big Apps, but that system mostly just do some Offices task (LO, GIMP, Audacity, Browser,Mails, etc) and play VN sometimes

ERROR: S client not available

CentOS minimal or fedora server

never tried CentOS before, i use Fedora's even on my production server ?

Any reference link for g4l for backup lvm partition?.

never tried CentOS before, i use Fedora's even on my production server ?

I dont like all the bloaty bloat thats installed if I have a inital server install I want to to turn on and have basically no processes running.

Minimal CentOS and Default FreeBSD have that and I like it

lol

Hi Jesús Welcome!

Hey, I know many of those! But the wolf is totally cool

Is there a cheap model/brand where I can install fedora?

Thinkpads can be very cheap and they're good indeed. And you can install any Linux you like there

Installing fedora in machine would be good at 4 giga ram at least, 2 giga I don't know whether it is enough

You can use any other desktop. Mate, XFCE & Cinnamon they all work well with 1 or 2 GB RAM.

Thank you all for the reply. Sadly I live in Italy, there's no right refurbished thinkpad here. Keep in mind that here people are still selling Pentium 4 laptops at around 80€

The shipping costs and the toll fees makes any deal a waste of money.
