Fedora 28/27/26 nVidia Drivers Install Guide - Comment Page: 42
This is guide, howto install nVidia proprietary drivers on Fedora 28/27/26/25/24/23/22/21 and disable Nouveau driver. This guide works with GeForce 6/7/8/9/200/300/400/500/600/700/800/900/10 series cards.
GeForce 400/500/600/700/800/900/10 series cards works with 384.xx, 387.xx, 390.xx and 396.xx nVidia drivers
GeForce 8/9/200/300 series cards works with 340.xx nVidia drivers
GeForce 6/7 series cards works with 304.xx nVidia drivers
This is totally different guide than my earlier guides, like Fedora 20 nVidia driver install. This guide uses nVidia drivers directly from nVidia site and dkms to help on kernel updates. Have to say that I have had and heard strange problems with...
With the latest Kernel update to 4.10 I needed the nvidia driver 375.39 together with this patch: https://leigh123linux.fedorapeople.org/pub/patches/nvidia/kernel_4.10.patch
If you have the nvidia[…].run file, apply the patch and install the driver by something like “sudo ./nvidia[…].run –apply-patch /path/to/patchfile.patch
If you have the installer extracted, cd into the directory with the extracted files (i.e. the directory containing nvidia-installer, LICENSE and so on) and run something like “patch -p1 < /path/to/patchfile.patch" and install as usual with "sudo ./nvidia-installer").
I hope this helps!
(For those fearless peaple running kernel 4.11:
There is another patch for this here, you might need to apply both: https://leigh123linux.fedorapeople.org/pub/patches/nvidia/)
First of all, thanks for your work as this is an awesome source of information for me for several years!
I recently updated my kernel on my F25 to 4.10+ and I don’t see yet an updated patch? Should I use the 4.9+? (I tried and couldn’t get it to work, I don’t have a login screen).
Thanks again!
for those who update the kernel to 4.10 and cant boot into system
$ wget -O NVIDIA-378.13-KERNEL-4.10.patch https://gist.githubusercontent.com/tpruzina/c4d9c0ca6bdbb6e78ab2126a7cdf8f1c/raw
$ wget -c http://tw.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/378.13/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-378.13.run
$ chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-378.13.run
$ ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-378.13.run -x
$ patch -p0 < ./NVIDIA-378.13-KERNEL-4.10.patch
$ cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-378.13
$ ./nvidia-installer
Thank you so much for this. After several failed attempts at installing the drivers on a fresh Fedora install, this finally saved me!!

Yeah!! All work nice =)
Worked flawlessly for me! Granted it was on a fresh install of Fedora 25. Regardless this is one of the best guides for installing the nvidia drivers for linux that I have seen!

Thank you!!!
Sorry for silly question. Should I repeat drivers installation on each Kernel update?
thanks
hello… still no news for plymouth?
