Re: Spectacular yum error with nvidia from elrepo

Thanks for the info!
I thought this is the case, but now I know
what I have installed just works, so I can update and disable the elrepo for now

do I need to do something extra to use the yum-plugin-elrepo ?

Re: Problems installing Nvidia drivers for Cent OS 7

if optirun works as root but not for your user, your user is probably not memeber of the 'bumblebee' group

see documentation from elrepo,

Code: Select all

2)Add your user account to group bumblebee.

Re: Problems installing Nvidia drivers for Cent OS 7

this is exactly the error I had, see the thread I linked ot

I had to add

Code: Select all

BusID "PCI:01:00:0"
to my config file

you need to adopt this to the BusID for your device,
which might be "PCI:2:0:0" as you have written above, but please double check

Re: Are there issues with replacing /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.*

You don't need a PhD, you just need to know that developers like shiny stuff and don't care about stability or security or any of that boring stuff. On the plus side, if they're writing C++, at least they're not installing random npm modules from the Internet. well, package managers for C++ are in ...

Re: Problems installing Nvidia drivers for Cent OS 7

I do not see what you mean with 'does not work'. black screen, optirun brings an error message, .... ? your config looks quite complex, my xorg.conf.nvidia is simple default, just the BusID added by me Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout0" Option "AutoAddDevices" "false" Option "AutoAddGPU" "f...

Re: Problems installing Nvidia drivers for Cent OS 7

I just recently installed first time CentOS, on my oldest Thinkpad still in use, a t430s, to see if nvidia will work and it does just follow this guild https://elrepo.org/tiki/bumblebee the only think I had to do was to add the device id in xorg bumblebee section, see https://www.centos.org/forums/v...

Re: Display problem with applications

looks like a notebook, is it one?

if, I had success with installing bumblebee following this guide
https://elrepo.org/tiki/bumblebee
the nvidia drivers should fix it, or, use just the intel card if you do not need the nvidia one
