Unable to find a match: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia

I install RPM fusion from Configuration - RPM Fusion, check for install nvidia driver via sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686.

But response :

Do you have both the RPM Fusion repositories installed, as documented on the configuration page?

https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration

What does

sudo dnf repolist

give you?

I have run into similar issues with the modular repos.
What I have used as a work around with a new install is to immediately use dnf to disable both the fedora-modular and updates-modular repos then I do not get the modular filtering issues you see.

I use “sudo dnf repolist” to see what repos are enabled. On a new install (or a system where you have not disabled them) you will see both fedora-modular and updates-modular listed. Then the command

sudo dnf config-manager --disable fedora-modular updates-modular

will disable both (but they can still be used with a --enable-repo=<reponame> when you want them)

Rather than installing things using modules I install exactly what I choose and so far, and for several years, I have had no issues. I also do not get the modular filtering message at any time.

Ah, yeh, I hadn’t noticed the “modular filtering” line there.

I seem to remember that the nvidia repos (not from RPM Fusion) provide a module now that filters out some stuff from RPM Fusion, so checking modules to see what is causing this to be filtered out would certainly be the first step here.

This explains it. The nvidia-driver module that Nvidia provides excludes various RPM Fusion packages.

Why are you using these repositories? The RPM Fusion repositories should be enough? One cannot mix the packages that RPM Fusion provides with stuff from Nvidia. So I’d suggest removing all of these Nvidia modules. They must at least be disabled for the RPM Fusion packages to work.

@ankursinha

I try for this tutorial for install my laptop driver

but now not find xorg-x11-drv-nvidia!

No, that’s not the only steps you’ve followed though. The docs do not require installing the repositories from Nvidia which provide these modules. What other tutorials have you followed? How did you get the cuda repo installed, for example?

Based on the RPM Fusion documentation, this should disable your nvidia module and allow the use of RPM Fusion packages:

sudo dnf module disable nvidia-driver

https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/CUDA

As the document says, RPM Fusion packages and the ones provided by Nvidia conflict. You cannot mix the two.

I would also disable the cuda-fedora34-x86_64 repo and remove the cuda packages installed from there.

Cuda is installed and fully functional by installing the xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda* packages from rpmfusion

There are also some conflicts seen between the the cuda repo and rpmfusion in that area.
