Ah-HA! A 352.63 driver just showed up on the nvidia site with this as one of the items added: Added support for X.Org xserver ABI 20 (xorg-server 1.18). So we just need rpmfusion to catch up now :-). -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

There is a guide to installing the NVidia drivers on Fedora 23. It involves back-reving xorg to 1.17. (1.18 is not stable using Nouveau drivers on my 2 gig NVidia card. I get some weird texture corruption.) The install guide is at: http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2015/fedora-nvidia-guide/ It worked pretty well for me. I did have to add --allowerasing on the command to back-rev xorg. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I find the safest and easiest way to do this is keep my fedora 22 partition the default and wait for f23 to get all the support I need before switching :-). -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Yep! Have just reverted all four F23 machines to F22. Too many annoying bugs at the moment. Have left one F23 machine to test, though.. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

xorg 1.18 released
I see the official announcement of xorg server 1.18: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2015-November/002655.html Anyone have any clues about when the final release will show up in fedora 23, and vastly more important, when nvidia binary drivers will show up now that 1.18 is official? P.S. I'd vastly prefer to use the nouveau open source driver, but my maxwell card won't talk nouveau unless nvidia releases the firmware in some form nouveau can use, so I'm stuck waiting for nvidia either way :-). -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

You should probably use https://www.changedetection.com and monitor http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html for changes to see when they release a new driver. And then you can bug the folks at rpmfusion. -- In reality, some people should stick to running Windows and others should stay away from computers altogether. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
