Hello,
I might need some help, I just have:
-
Installed the NVidia drivers with the akmod-nvidia package from RPMFusion.
-
Added the following kernel parameters to grub:
rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau nvidia-drm.modeset=1
-
Created
/usr/lib/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
with:
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
However, I do not seem to be able to load the nvidia module by default:
# modprobe nvidia
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found in directory /lib/modules/6.0.15-300.fc37.x86_64
# nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
However, if I insert the module manually, everything works correctly:
insmod /lib/modules/6.0.15-300.fc37.x86_64/extra/nvidia/nvidia.ko.xz
# nvidia-smi

This is an Asus X550J with an i5 4200H CPU and an NVidia 850m.
Any ideas about what could I be doing wrong?
Thanks
