The latest from elrepo - kmod-nvidia-430.40-2.el7_7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm -
is built for EL 7.7 and is not compatible with CentOS 7.6.

kmod-nvidia-430.40-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64 is the last that will work
with the latest CentOS 7.6 kernel.

This issue can be taken care of by installing yum-plugin-elrepo from ELRepo.

Akemi,

Thank you for your help.  I actually had already installed yum-plugin-elrepo, 
and that was
apparently part of the problem.   When I do an update with this repo active 
kmod-nvidia-
430.40-2.el7_7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm is the rpm that is set to be installed which 
does not work
because I an running Centos 7.6.   When I installed kmod-nvidia-430.40-
1.el7_7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm instead of doing an update everything worked 
perfectly. 

Looks like the elrep repsitory may have a problem with this update.

[CentOS] kmod-nvidia-430.40-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64 fails to install

2019-08-24 Thread Gregory P. Ennis
Everyone,

On August  2, my desktop unit updated with 
kmod-nvidia-430.40-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64nnn
which broke yum having a multiple of dependencies not being present.  I 
uninstall kmod-
dvidia with the hopes that a fresh install would fix the provlem, but it did 
not.

nvidia-detect returns :

kmod-nvidia
An Intel display controller was also detected

I was hoping that this was a repository problem that would become fixed, but I 
am still now
unable to reinstall kmod-nvidia.

Has anyone else had this problem, and does anyone have any suggestions as to 
how I might
begin a fix.  I would surely like to use my nvidia card again.

Thanks for your help!!!

It means dealing with a ton of little IRQ's that built up over the
builds. There are all the updates which have gone out from Red Hat
since their .0. There are trying to find all the little nagging things
people find which someone will say 'Why didn't CentOS people actually
find this blaringly obvious problem I found in 30 seconds.. are they
all idiots?' which happens right after every release. And there are
the 'ok could we get this one more thing?' stuff which pile up also.
This happens in some every .0 release from 4 onward.. 2-3 weeks where
people wonder why stuff is being held from them...
