I just finished doing a "dnf upgrade" as a prerequisite step to
upgrading from f-38 to f-39.
There were no hints of any problems. The kernel and the graphics driver
were replaced during this "dnf upgrade".
The akmods did finish before I rebooted.
The shutdown took 5 minutes because it ran akmods (a second time?!).
During the boot-up, there was a message that it was failing back to
nouveau.
The display is not working properly; only one monitor is being used and
everything is oversized in the display.
I am not comfortable proceeding with the f-38 to f-39 upgrade with the
work station in this condition.
Important: I have only one old kernel. I have no rescue kernel.
How do I get this workstation working properly?
I just ran into that exact same issue on RHEL 9 instead of Fedora.
I wound up uninstalling all the RPMFusion packages and reinstalling
them, but it didn't help. I waited til all the gcc and depmod and xz
processes completed, it ain't my first rodeo. Still no joy.
I finally just nuked all the RPMFusion packages and downloaded the
drivers directly from https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx and ran
the installer from there. It works fine again. I hate to do it, because
I really prefer the RPMs, but I *had* to get back to work and my desktop
was toast. Three of my four monitors weren't working.
Sorry I don't have better advice, but I feel like something went south
in the RPMFusion packages.
