Akemi _______________________________________________ ------------------------------------------- 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. Greg

Please show the output from: rpm -q kernel uname -a yum-plugin-elrepo is designed to mask kmod packages from the yum transaction when the required kernel from those packages is not available to yum. In order for the yum-plugin-elrepo to work correctly, all kernels should be available. Unfortunately, because of the differences between RHEL and CentOS, whereby RHEL makes ALL packages continuously available whereas CentOS repositories ONLY contain the latest point release and update packages, yum-plugin-elrepo may not work correctly on CentOS in some circumstances. The workaround is to enable the CentOS vault repository so that all previous kernel packages are available to yum as they are on RHEL. See this bug: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=15476 Please try enabling the CentOS vault repo and see if that fixes your issue with yum. Thanks, Phil
