The latest update to Nvidia driver akmod-nvidia-520.56.06-1 is causing flickering with my laptop display.
I have seen this issue also with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed & the official Nvidia driver installer. So I’m pretty sure it is an issue with the driver and not Fedora/Rpmfusion.
I want to downgrade and switch back to akmod-nvidia-515.76-1 but the packages are not in the repository anymore (rpmfusion-nonfree-updates).
Is there a location where I could still download akmod-nvidia-515.76-1 packages and it’s dependencies to perform a downgrade?
I do have a BTRFS snapshot to fall back to but would prefer to use dnf to downgrade the packages.
I found the build for nvidia-kmod-515.76-1.fc36 with links to the rpm packages for akmod-nvidia-515.76-1.fc36 and kmod-nvidia-515.76-1.fc36.
I was searching Koji for akmod-nvidia and kmod-nvidia because the Rpmfusion Nvidia Howto mentions sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia and it is what my package list shows:
Yeh, koji lists packages by their source package name (used for the spec etc.), but a source package can produce different rpms as sub-packages, and even not generate a primary package. So this must be the case here. The spec/source package is nvidia-kmod, and it produces rpms akmod-nvidia/kmod-nvidia.
Hi, sorry noob question. I’ve got the same issue with 555 and 560 now (testing repo in my case). I found the respective 555 links on koji, how do I now properly install them, so references to the repo are being made? or is this just about at least having the correct version and dealing with the package manager later (i.e. uninstalling and installing again from repo when a fixed version is available)?
cause in the meantime I had just downloaded the 555 driver version directly from nvidia…
