Good. I have also validated the akmods-shutdown service that recompiles (if needed) all the kmods for all the kernels at shutdown. I don't care to loose a few minutes when rebooting since I do that only every two or 3 weeks after a full update. -- francis ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

'akmods' was installed, but fails to run, reporting a missing dependency--'kernel-devel'! So, every time the kernel is updated, the build of the nvidia module fails (silently, as far as I can see). Having installed that, akmods now happily builds the nvidia module and the system boots and uses it.

Hi All, I had a similar problem and it had to do with the kernel sources/headers in my case. Fedora was running a later kernel and sources than the latest version of stuff from rpmfusion for nvidia, once I put the correct older version of sources/headers in place, I could force the module to build and it all worked great from there.

I ended up doing a "rpm -e --nodeps ..." on all the cups packages until the conflict cleared. The strange part was "dnf install cups" wouldn't work. No output after loading the metadata. "dnf list" would show the cups package as available but it was colored slightly blue. I still don't know what that means but it refused to install it. I finally resorted to pulling the package directly from koji.
