Hi JR,
Did the following
1. Verify nvidia card is supported
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G72 [GeForce 7300 LE] (rev a1)
2. downloaded the associated nvidia driver
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.137.run
3. followed the instructions and got the following error when running the nvidia installer:
make -C /usr/src/kernels/5.13.13-200.fc34.x86_64/tools/build CFLAGS= LDFLAGS= /usr/src/kernels/5.13.13-200.fc34.x86_64/tools/objtool/fixdep

5. I am running : Linux fedora 5.13.13-200.fc34.x86_64

Any suggestions on what went wrong??

  Hello Herb,
  
  Unfortunately NVIDIA 304.xx is not supported anymore with latest 5.13 kernels.

Hi there,

after the installation only my external monitor is working. The laptop monitor does not show anything. How to enable dual monitor?

  Hi,
  
  Actually this is how to NVIDIA drivers works with NVIDIA Optimus laptops. If you check step 1.2 you can see link to https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/470.63.01/README/optimus.html
  
  “The driver may be installed normally on Optimus systems, but the NVIDIA X driver and the NVIDIA OpenGL driver may not be able to display to the laptop’s internal display panel unless a means to connect the panel to the NVIDIA GPU (for example, a hardware multiplexer, or “mux”, often controllable by a BIOS setting) is available. On systems without a mux, the NVIDIA GPU can still be useful for offscreen rendering, PRIME render offload, running CUDA applications, and other uses that don’t require driving a display.”
  
  Next thing to do is check your BIOS / UEFI. Is it possible to disable integrated graphics / NVIDIA Optimus?

Here’s a question:

How do you go from a NVIDIA GTX1060 to an AMD 5600XT in Fedora 34? What are the exact steps to configure the 5600XT for open source drivers?

  And in case it wasn’t obvious, the GTX1060 is running NVIDIA proprietary drivers installed via your guide.

    Yes it works !! There is only one question and a problem with a similar one for Windows NT, with NVIDIA drivers :if the NVIDIA Control Panel component gets lost and disappears there,😁 then everything is almost fine in Fedora with this: only nvidia-settings.desctop in /usr/share/applications/ gets lost (that is, it is not created when installing drivers). 😁

I managed to install it in Fedora34! The only side effect is the system switched to X11 and I lost gests.

Hi JR, The recent 5.14.9 kernel did not work for runlevel 5, so I tried, in runlevel 3, executing your steps 2.6.1 — 2.6.5 and re-running NVIDIA-Linux…390.144.run. It failed for the DKMS step. So I will keep with the 5.13.19 kernel (which works fine) and await further news from you. My VGA is NVIDIA’s GF116 [GeForce GTX 550 Ti].

Thank you for your great instructions! I can’t believe how you actually read 3,040 comments.

  Hello Adson,
  
  Yes, it should work with external monitor even if your laptop panel won’t work. You can always restore nouveau if you have problems.

It looks like 390.144 is indeed going to need a patch for kernels 5.14 and up because the names of some structs have changed.

    I serious do not mind waiting and just using the previous 5.13 kernel for now.
    
    You do such a great job of getting patches out quickly. (unlike rpmfusion where I can say factually its taken 6 months in the past.)
    
    Like Peter Scott said, thanks to everyone for a great site, and quick turn around on patches.

      Hello,
      
      I have patched manually the three files that are appointed in this patch, but I am not very skilled in applying patches with patch. So I decided to change the C files myself and insert the changes.
      
      It worked. These are two files inside the nvidia subdirectory and one file inside the nvidia-drm subdirectory. Just locate the appointed files and copy (with root privileges) – then go and upgrade the kernel.
      
      Everything should be located at /usr/src/nvidia-390.144/
      
      The files can be downloaded from this link:
      
      https://www.mediafire.com/folder/788f7sxpi1q6s/nvidia
      
      I hope this helps for now!
      Best regards.

        Hi JR!
        Ok, thanks!
        Just in case one does not want to mess with scripting and patching, and already has the proprietary driver framework under /usr/src, it’s just a matter to overwrite these files and the dkms will compile. It rests as another way to do it. I’m glad we’ve come up with these solutions very early (and not 6 months as another folk mentioned!).
        
        Cheers.

  I see that Emanuele Rocca has done the entire receipt as where to patch, but it’s not automatized yet. I don’t want to mess with patch right now, but if anyone could drop some instructions here on getting that text on a diff and patch that group of files would be nice. Thanks for the info.

Hi there, I’m using F34. I managed to install the driver successfully apparently, this is my output..

However when I go to settings->about, in graphics, the Intel card is still showing. do you know why is that?

  Hello Luis,
  
  Problem is NVIDIA Optimus device. You have to disable Intel integrated graphics from BIOS/UEFI. Or use something like https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/435.17/README/primerenderoffload.html to switch graphics per application.
