Hi

The nvidia drives are not working for me with the latest kernel on Fedora 20.

There are no kmods (or akmods) for the latest kernel (kernel-3.18.7-100.fc20.x86_64) for the 340xx driver which yum has installed for me.

This is what my nightly yum updates gave me:

yum list installed "*nvidia*"
Loaded plugins: langpacks, xray
Installed Packages
akmod-nvidia.x86_64 1:331.113-1.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates kmod-nvidia-3.18.6-100.fc20.x86_64.x86_64 1:331.113-1.fc20.4 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates kmod-nvidia-3.18.7-100.fc20.x86_64.x86_64 1:331.113-1.fc20.5 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates kmod-nvidia-340xx-3.17.8-200.fc20.x86_64.x86_64 1:340.65-4.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx.x86_64 1:340.65-4.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx-libs.x86_64 1:340.65-4.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates

There don't seem to be any
kmod-nvidia-340xx*
or
akmod-nvidia-340xx.x86_64
packages in the nonfree x86_64 updates repo and the package xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx conflicts with the available kmod-nvidia-3.18.7-100.fc20.x86_64.x86_64 1:331.113-1.fc20.5
for the latest kernel.

If I
yum --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing update
Then there are errors as follows:

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx conflicts with 1:xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-331.113-2.fc20.x86_64 Error: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia conflicts with 1:xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx-340.76-1.fc20.x86_64

I notice that the F21 repos do have the
kmod-nvidia-340xx*
and
akmod-nvidia-340xx.x86_64

Is this an oversight for the F20 repo, or am I missing something?

Thanks
