Hi All,
After the upgrade from hell (6.1 --> 6.2) and not being
able to start X11, I found the following:
The nvidia drivers (kmod-nvidia, nvidia-x11-drv) failed to
open my display. So, I had to revert to the Nouveau
(xorg-x11-drv-nouveau) drivers. Which, of course, I
had to install the hard way.
Has anyone got
kmod-nvidia-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
nvidia-x11-drv-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
nvidia-x11-drv-32bit-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
to work on SL6.2 x64 successfully? And, if so, what/how did
you do it?
I have updated my machine from SL 6.1 to 6.2. Absolutely no problem with:
$ rpm -qa | grep nvidia
kmod-nvidia-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
nvidia-x11-drv-32bit-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
nvidia-x11-drv-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
I did not do anything special. Just rebooted the system after the
update and that's all.
Do you have any error message you can show? Like /var/log/Xorg.0.log
when X failed to start?

Hi Akemi,
All of my Xorg.x.logs show the "nouveau" driver. I could
not find one that was looking for my nvidia-x11-drv.
I wonder if this thing in my kernel run line has anything
to do with it: nouveau.modeset=0
