As long as 200.fc36 belongs to a *working* kernel, it's the important one to have backed up.

Where is "initrd"? /boot/initramfs-5.19.17-200.fc36.x86_64.img Initrd is the traditional term for initial RAM disk (initrd), which after many moons use had the term initial RAM filesystem (initramfs) ascribed to the file serving the same purpose and basic structure. It was never a literal disk, just a filesystem, like floppies, HDD partitions and logical volumes support. On most installations, either lsinitrd or lsinitramfs will list either's contents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial_ramdisk -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

It still boots the 5.19 kernel OK, right? 1-Backup the initrd for 5.19. 2-Boot only the 5.19 kernel until such time as updated NVidia 470 drivers reach rpmfusion-nonfree-updates so you can upgrade them.

Seems that you want to use the nvidia driver but it is not compiled and so the fallback nouveau is used. Guess nouveau does not support 2 monitors. Find the akmod logs for the nvidia build and see if there is a clue about what went wrong.

monitor/display problem.
(f36) Good afternoon, A short while ago, I did my weekly patches (dnf upgrade), and then re-booted. Just before that, the workstation display (dual monitor) was fine. After the reboot, only one display works. If I switch the monitor cables, I still get a one-monitor display, but on the other monitor. This leads me to think that the problem is not with the monitors. The display in the one monitor looks a little fuzzy and stretched out horizontally. I also notice at the end of the boot log the following lines: - M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m] (2 of 3) Job plymouth-quit-wait.ser…tart running (1min 17s / no limit) M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m[0;31m*[0m] (2 of 3) Job plymouth-quit-wait.ser…tart running (1min 17s / no limit) M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m[0;31m* [0m] (3 of 3) Job akmods.service/start running (1min 18s / no limit) M [K[ [0;31m*[0;1;31m*[0m[0;31m* [0m] (3 of 3) Job akmods.service/start running (1min 18s / no limit) M [K[[0;32m OK [0m] Finished [0;1;39makmods.service[0…all new kmods from akmod packages.

What is the problem? More important, how do I fix it? thanks, Bill. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
