That's still true, nouveau has to be blacklisted or Bad Things happen when trying to use the nVidia drivers.
It's a Quadro K2100M, reports 576 CUDA cores, and is supported by the latest drivers. It's based on the GK106 (Kepler) core, roughly equivalent to a...
The rpmfusion repo nvidia drivers install with nvidia-drm.modeset=1, which turns on the nvidia KMS support if the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DRM...
Finally got up and running on Fedora. I had to install Fedora 26, because Fedora 27 IS A HOT STEAMING PILE OF POO!!! SERIOUSLY What god-forsaken...
That MIGHT actually be the problem. It was hanging at 'cp cinnamon-real cinnamon.tmp && mv cinnamon.tmp cinnamon', as if it was waiting on...
I've had to abort this. Getting Gentoo running in a desktop environment has turned out to be more of a challenge than I had anticipated. Right now,...
Very odd indeed. I'd turn off the reboot on power failure option. There's no need to have it on a desktop machine, and that MIGHT be playing into...

I've got some Lynnfield Xeons (Nehalem cores) that are showing: [ 0.000000] microcode: microcode updated early to revision 0x7, date = 2013-08-20...

I've always gone with nVidia on Linux. AMD's drivers are MUCH better than they used to be, but they still suck balls, apparently, compared to...
If only it were that easy, LOL.
Amen to that brother! Go tell it on the mountain! :D Seriously, I upgraded my son's 8-year-old lappy to an SSD and it was like he had a whole new...
