CentOS

Hi All. I have an old HP compaq elite 8300. I cant Install Hardware Drivers ( In addition NVDIA Gforce GT series ) from its company. Im Just beginner in Linux and have no acquainted with, but pleasured and interested in linux family especially for stable and performance feature. Please help me and explain what can I do ? Thanks a lot.

What drivers?


For NVidia, you should first install the ELRepo repository. See
https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResou ... positories and http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php Then, install utility to check which version of the Nvidia driver you have to use: See http://elrepo.org/tiki/nvidia-detect

Thank you very much. Drivers like, chipset, audio, lan etc on mainboard. I usualy download latest driver from HP website and stored then install , in windows. But I dont know how install hardware driver in linux for first exp.

Most drivers comes with linux, so unless you have a
problem, there should be no need to install anything.

No computer manufacturer supplies drivers for linux on laptops, well not standard general purpose ones anyway. You either get a driver for your hardware with your linux distro or you find a third party who supplies one for you (like ELRepo) or you build it yourself (not recommended on CentOS).
