nvidia fails to build on this kernel kernel.x86_64 7.2.0-0.rc6.446.vanilla.fc45 and I’m fairly new to Fedora testing so any tips or advice is welcome. :smiley:
Thanks for reading

Things I’ve done so far is to rebuild the the Mods, including --force

sudo akmods --force --rebuild
sudo dracut --force
sudo reboot

Also a reinstall was issued at the time.

It is not unusually for a source code patch to be needed for a new kernel to support the nvidia drivers.

From what you describe that is the issue you are facing.

Thanks for the reply, My silent guess was right on a patch. :smiley:

4

The nvidia drivers are awful so they need tons of babysitting to work on newer kernels

Thanks for moviing this to a proper slot! :wink:

And yahoo it’s fixed with todays upgrades!! :heart_eyes:
