On this same system, I had precisely the same issue on Fedora 42. Here is the thread for it if it helps.
The identified issue there was a need to run: sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda and install it.
Upon switching to Fedora 43, I did exactly the same thing. However, it doesn’t seem to be helping this time.
Nvidia 1080ti if it is relevant.
Symptoms are sometimes easy to reproduce but not inherently consistent across all flatpaks.
Anki flatpak: after selecting the language, the main UI’s basic shape/window shows up, and then it immediately crashes
Spotify flatpak: appears to be running fine, but a crash report shows up with it upon launching
Tangent Notes (AppImage on this one): Javascript issues showing up when trying to write files to a location (comes across as maybe a permission issue)
Alpaca Flatpak: Python 3.12 is crashing sporadically in the middle of downloading models
Brave Flatpak: Seems to be working fine on the surface, but sending crash reports periodically
Discord Flatpak: Seems to be working fine on the surface, but sending crash reports sporadically
PlayOnLinux isn’t launching
I’m sure there’s others that I’m just not thinking about. Again, I had exactly these same issues on F42 and they were def attached to the nvidia driver situation.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Edit: If it matters, I did a “Clean Install,” not an “Upgrade.” In the older post linked at the top, I have a traceback or two listed in there if seeing it is helpful to any more advanced users.
While waiting, I’ve tried to continue troubleshooting on my own. I have run the command:
sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia
And it seems to have had a lot of errors/issues while running. I’ve closed that window, so I don’t have access to what all any more. However, I tried restarting the computer and before booting fully, it said that it failed to detect the kernal and was falling back to “nuoevo” or whatever.
Upon logging in again, I opened the terminal and ran:
sudo akmods--force
And then it output:
Could not find files needed to compile modules for 6.17.6-300.fc43.x86_64
Are the development files for kernel 6.17.6-300.fc43.x86_64 or the appropriate kernel-devel package installed?
It didn’t give me the ability to resolve it or anything. It just forced out for me to enter a new command line.
I’m not sure if this is the proper troubleshooting route I should be following or if it is relevant, but it is what I attempted.
Edit: I’m not sure what happened, but despite this issue persisting for a few days and the akmod thing not immediately fixing it, after several hours, more updates seemed to drop for the OS, and maybe a kernel or something came with it? Because upon restarting my computer this previous time around, akmods seemed to assemble the driver on startup instead of complaining about the kernel being missing. Upon doing so, the computer seems a lot more stable and I’m not able to currently reproduce the issues I was having prior. I’m going to close this as solved. If someone else finds it and is trying to learn from it, I’m sorry. This is all I have to add and say. Thank you to anyone who read it and scratched their head and didn’t know what to say.
