Fedora Installation :: Nvidia Removing Kernel Module
Jun 19, 2009I had the 180.xxx nvidia drivers on my FC10 setup.I installed the 185.xxx and am running into issues. It gives me the fatal server error: no screens found message. Before that it says that the nvidia kernel module is 180.xxx and the driver component has 185.xxx. I can't seem to figure out how to uninstall the previous module to make this work. I removed the yum kmod nvidia. I'm running this using sh nvidia.185xxx.xxxx.run . The weird thing is that it sometimes would work but then I would restart and it would break again.
Thanks in advance,

Jul 4, 2010my problem is on installing nvidia driver on fc12 32bit but, first of all, as i understood the pae kernel requires more than 4gb of ram,i have a 2.2 ghz cpu with 2 gb ram,but when i run command:uname -r it answers: 2.6.31.5-127.PAE [i have fc12 32 bit] when we try to download linux we have a 32bit edition or 64bit edition,do we have an edition which is only for pae? or when we install for example the 32bit edition on a computer with more than 4gb of ram then the kernel automatically will change to be a pae kernel??

Feb 5, 20109.04 this morning updated my kernel to I believe it is 2.6.28.18 and upon the reboot I had no desktop. It booted wanting to go into low graphics.
So I drop to shell and stop the gdm and try to run the latest nvidia run file I have and it hangs saying I have a x server running.
Otherwise I am needing assistance with getting my desktop back! I can boot into an older kernel and if need be I would like to roll back that latest update this morning, but once again I am forgetting the command line for that.
Fedora Installation :: 12 And Nvidia GeForce 5950 - Kernel Panic - Not Syncing: VFS: Unable To Mount Root Fs On Unknown-block(0,0)
Dec 5, 2009I have a Compaq Presario 8000 with an Nvidia Geforce FX 5950 Ultra on which a year ago I upgraded from Fedora 6 to Fedora 9, and this broke the Nvidia driver, since Fedora 9 was shipped with an X server incompatible with Nvidia. I went back to the 2d driver to get X working, and it sat that way for the past year. But recently I wanted to do some 3D work and decided to install Fedora 12, which hopefully has an X server that works with Nvidia.
I decided to do a cold install, re-partitioning my 80G hard drive at the same time. I backed up my data, ran the install CDs with no errors, and booted the system, with an immediate kernel panic: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
Doing a Google search, I found over 8,000 hits for that message combined with the keyword Fedora. Several of the hits were on Bugzilla: [URL] I then booted the install disk, chose rescue mode and did - chroot /mnt/sysimage

Nov 2, 2009I am trying to install the Nvidia Quadro NVS 110 169.04 drivers but am having issues during install. Prior to attempting my install I did install the kernel-devel rpm so it can compile. after running the RPM I get. Quote: No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you like the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel from the NVIDIA ftp site [URL]?
which of course does not work. next it says Quote: "No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this means that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.. i hit okay and move on to.

Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your kernel and that they are properly configured; on Red Hat linux systems, for example be sure you have the 'kernel-source' or 'kernel-devel' RPM installed. if you know the correct kernel source files are installed, you may specify the kernel source path with the "--kernel-source-path' command line option
Ubuntu Installation :: NVidia Kernel Cannot Be Found
Apr 16, 2011I was upgrading my machine from 10.04 to 10.10 through the update manager yesterday. Half way in, my power was cut off due to a storm. Now I can't boot up and says a message like "NVIDIA kernel cannot be found" blah. I know my drivers are down and what not. When I boot into the recovery mode I get the error "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2 /dev/sda2/: clean, 441017/886437 files, 5443336/3536363227 blocks" I guess I just need to download the rest of the software, but how? I don't have a CD burner on hand, only a 8gb USB, but I don't know enough command line to run the USB using the GRUB command line. I just want my files from my /home directory.

Fedora :: Fedora 12 Going Away Present : New Kernel Breaks NVidia 96xx Drivers?
Dec 3, 2010The updated Kernel 2.6.32.26.175.fc12 (i686) broke nVidia 96xx drivers (nVidia MX-4000 card).Resulted in a quickly flashing cursor in the upper left corner, with no X startup.I removed the driver and let it rebuild using akmod. Still have the same problem.When I revert back to the previous kernel 2.6.32.23-170.fc12.i686, all is well.At this point, wonder what the chances are of this being fixed? Seems the last set of updates before EOL of a release always breaks something critical.

Sep 27, 2010Having just updated various files including the kernel using Package Manager I no longer seem to have the correct version of the Nvidia graphics driver. On previous updates this has been done automatically by the "kmod Nvidia" Metapackage. My last kernel was 2.6.32.19-163 fc12.i686.PAE and the Nvidia driver for that did get downloaded correctly. Looking on Yumex I cannot see a driver for this latest kernel listed.

Jun 17, 2011I updated FC14 which included the kernel and also the nvidia drivers kmod. Then after a reboot the video driver wouldn't load. From another terminal I tried different things to fix it and didn't managed. I eventually erased all nvidia drivers so that I can get the default one. Now every time it boots I get a really low light. I can login, but can't see. It seems that the whole screens has about 5% light and I can't see to do anything. I managed now to boot into FC live CD for FC15 and I have light. For FC14 live CD it's the same no light problem.
I tried all older kernels to boot but I have the same problem. I am using PAE kernel and that's why I installed the kmod drivers. But now, since they are not anymore and I can't see anything, even though I am logged in I don't know what to do next. Is there something I can do from FC15 live cd? How can I go using the terminal to my harddisk and how to add the driver or any low graphic driver so that I can have light? After I did yum erase *nvidia* the light went almost off.
Fedora :: Nvidia Cuda 3D Kernel Nightmare?
Aug 14, 2011I've been trying to get the Nvidia drivers from the nvidia site installed by running-devdriver_4.0_linux_64_270.41.19.run
I have a GeForce 210 PCI Express DDR3 graphics card. I've recently screwed an old version of fedora trying to do this and ended wiping it and installing Fedora 15. I managed to get the standard setup working nice with dual screen support and Tux Kart working smoothly which has never happened before with ATI cards.
The reason i've tried to get an NVIDIA card working is so that i can try to do some development with CUDA. To do this i need to get the proprietary driver working. To get the install program working correctly i've edited the kernel options in grub.conf to stop nouveau driver which seemed to work. The next step i got onto was the need for the kernel source which i've installed. The program can't find this, even with a load of Symbolic links giving-
/usr/src/linux-2.6.40-4
/usr/src/linux
/usr/src/2.6.40-4.fc15.x86_64
/usr/src/linux-2.6.40-4.fc15.x86_64
/usr/src/linux-2.6.40-4
all pointing to-
/usr/src/Kernels/2.6.40-4.fc15.x86_64
After following the steps of dozens of guides, i now cannot run games that need 3d support and i'm no further in getting the proprietary drivers working. Coding in CUDA is a distant dream after weeks of faff in my spare time to go 2 steps back and one forward...
Does anybody know how to do all this? If anybody could help me i'd be very grateful. I've never had decent graphics support in linux. Everytime i've tried it's ended in a horrible mess!
Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Use Nvidia With Kernel Upgrade To 2.6.32-23-generic
Jun 30, 2010Upgraded to latest kernel 2.6.32-23. Ubuntu 10.04 I run a twinview video configuration of 2 screens @ 1920x1200. On booting, X wanted to go to low res for the session, which reverted to one screen (that is, I lost the twin view), but actually kept the 1920x1200 res on the one. I restarted X on got both screen working with the second as a replica of the first. Something has changed in this version of the kernel. Reverted to the previous Kernel version (22) and all is sweet (twin view is back working). But this can only be a temporary workaround.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: 10.04 Kernel Upgrade Breaks Nvidia Driver?
Jul 19, 2011I've just installed Lucid Lynx on both my machines in the interest of sitting and waiting for the Unity/Gnome 3 storm to blow over. On the HP (see below), everything works great, and I've followed instructions online on how to upgrade to LibreOffice, upgrade the kernel to 2.6.38 using the kernel PPA, etc.
However, on the IBM, I'm using Nvidia proprietary graphics drivers. These work well on the stock kernel that 10.04 installed (2.6.32-32), but installing 2.6.38 seems to break the driver. If I install the driver first, and then the kernel on top, X stops working and I have to revert to the default, generic driver to get back in. Once there, I cannot install the driver again. The Additional Drivers dialog goes through the motions, but then drops a "systemerror: installarchives() failed" error message.
So, is there a different version of the driver I should be trying to install? I should clarify at this point I tried all three options the Additional Drivers dialog provided me, all gave the same result (version 96, version 173, and version current).
Or should I leave the kernel at 2.6.32? Is there any downside to leaving it?

Fedora :: F14: Module License 'NVIDIA' Taints Kernel

How can I fix this without having to recompile the kernel?

I use nVidia on my notebook and usually the new driver is installed automatically. This time, the computer would not boot to the stage that the nVidia logo appears, indicating the driver is not present.

Ubuntu :: NVIDIA: Failed To Load The NVIDIA Kernel Module?
Aug 31, 2010I spent quite a lot of time jumping from one thread to another trying to fix a problem with my NVIDIA drivers in Lucid. I was getting the error message on startup: NVIDIA: Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module ...Failed to load module "nvidia" (module-specific error, 0) No drivers available".
After a lot of trial and error, this is what worked for me (I have updated this thread following [URL]):
- Download the latest NVIDIA driver from www.nvidia.com/page/drivers.html
- In the terminal cd to the directory where you downloaded the driver package (e.g., $ cd Downloads)and make it executable (e.g., $ sudo chmod +x ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-256.53.run)
- Edit blacklist.conf $ gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Fedora :: Kernel Changed After Installing Nvidia Graphics Drivers
Jan 14, 2010im having an intel E2180 processor with 2 gb RAM and an nvidia 8400gs graphics card. Lately i installed Fedora 12 on my system and found that with default settings the desktop 3d is not working. so installed the kmod-nvidia using yum after following the instruction.i also edited the grub.conf file to rdblacklist=nouveau to blacklist nouveau drivers.
Then once i rebooted i found two kernels in grub ie the old one and the one with PAE extension. when i booted into the old kernel its Xwindows failed to load showing a black screen and when i tried the new PAE kernel it booted in 640 x 480 resolution. {earlier i was getting a resolution of 1440 x 900 on my 17" widescreen monitor}. it also showed that the nvidia drivers failed to load. I also read in some forums that the PAE kernels are for systems with 4gb+ of ram. So i thought it better to reinstall the whole thing.
then i reinstalled the whole operating system using my fedora 12 dvd and performed the 'upgrade or replace the existing linux distribution'. interestingly now my older kernel has disappeared and the PAE kernel is the one that is remaining.

Fedora :: Updated Kernel / Now Nvidia.ko Module Doesn't Load
Feb 26, 2010I think I know quite well what my problem is. However, I'm still too much of a newbie to know how to solve it.My problem: I no longer get a login screen on my server after I ran a yum update which updated my kernel (thank god, vnc server still works).Cause: During startup Fedora complains that it can't load the module nvidia.ko. Reason: The module doesn't match the current kernel.
