similar to: Problems with CentOS 7 and X w/ nvidia

A user running gnome came in this morning, clicked on the application menu... and it was much shorter than he expected. He could get to firefox, and googled about refreshing that... and found something that told him to reboot. And that's it: I cannot get X up, at all. I just get the "oh, no, something failed, please log out and try again". Fully updated CentOS 7, [AMD/ATI] Oland

Got a HBS (y'know, Honkin' Big Server, one o' them technical terms), a Dell 720 with two Tesla GPUs. I updated the o/s, 6.5, and I cannot get the GPUs recognized. As a last resort, I d/l NVidia's proprietary driver/installer, 325, and it builds fine... I've yum removed the kmod-nvidia I had on the system, nouveau is blacklisted, and when I reboot, lsmod shows me nvidia loaded,

I've got a headless server running CentOS 7. I've got a user who wants to run some graphical software on it, and view using x forwarding. What I don't have clear is how to set this up. I've just installed xorg-x11-server-[Xorg, common]. I assume I need to run X, but I don't see running this in runlevel 5. Thoughts? mark "and why is it called xorg-x11-server, when in

Or, another rant against systemd. Moderators, put up with it - this is an issue. I tried systemctl start multi-user.target. I tried systemctl stop graphical.target. I finally had to set the multi-user.target as the default, and reboot, to get rid of the nouveau drivers. Note that I tried to modprobe -r, and rmmod with all the modules using nouveau, and couldn't - I kept getting "in

Hello, New kernel version 2.6.32-279.2.1.el6.x86_64 in combination with xorg-x11-drv-nouveau Version:0.0.16 is somehow painfully slow on my laptop. during start up it takes almost half a minute for gnome login to appear. After having logged in the following happens: - gnome top and bottom panels "slide/crawl" in to view one pixel line at a time. - starting the terminal takes much more

Let me start by saying that no, I can't get a new card for my user. So, I've got the 96 nvidia driver. I've rebuilt it several times before, and Nvidia's installer's always worked fine. Actually, I have the 73 on my system, and just updated to 5.5, and no problem. HOWEVER, I last rebuilt my user's driver back in mid-April, after the last kernel update (was that

So, on my old Netbook, now happily running C6.9, I'm looking for opinions for a lightweight window manager. Gnome surely ain't it.... Years back, I used to like IceWM, but not sure it's been kept up. So, opinions? mark

This is really frustrating. I've got a server with two K20c Tesla cards. I need to use the proprietary drivers to use the CUDA toolkit. Btw, I had no trouble at all with building for CentOS 7.3 I have what NVidia claims is the correct driver package, a 340 series. It appears to build, but then fails to load. The only error I see is "no such device", which makes no sense to me, esp.

I just went to install kmod-nvidia on a 64-bit CentOS 6.2 system... and enabling elrepo, yum can't find it. There's a page for it, but that was last updated last year, and there are also references to packages for older Nvidia cards, but not the current. What do I not know? mark
