[CentOS] [OT] Cannot boot into GUI after Video Driver is Installed
Good Day,
I am not 100% certain if here is the right place to bring this up, however
if this is the wrong place for this please redirect me to right place.
A few weeks ago I was trying to install KVM on my laptop, I bought a new
laptop and immediately after I install the nVidia drivers I receive the
following error "libfcoe_device_notification: NETDEV_UNREGISTER lo"
I spent several hours googling the error and there are several issues,
however none of them are related to my situation.
I am running CentOS 6.2
LSB Version:
:core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.0-amd64:graphics-4.0-noarch:printing-4.0-amd64:printing-4.0-noarch
Distributor ID: CentOS
Description: CentOS release 6.2 (Final)
Release: 6.2
Codename: Final
Below are some of the errors that I extracted from the logs

Is there anything that I can do to resolve the issue so that I am able to
use the kmod-nvidia drivers on CentOS 6.2?
Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated.

If you do an lsmod, does it show nouveau? Second question: does the version of kmod-nvidia support your graphics card? Oh, and did you yum install it, so that you got nvidia-x11-drv? mark, who just noticed that he's got that, *and* nvidia-x11-drv-32bit, on his x86_64 system for some reason....
