Dangit. And I just got F23 right about where I want it. Took me ages to get my wifi drivers working properly, and I still haven't got the Nvidia official driver

Dangit. And I just got F23 right about where I want it. Took me ages to get my wifi drivers working properly, and I still haven't got the Nvidia official drivers working right yet.
- snuxoll 10y agoDid you try the RPMFusion packages for the nVidia drivers? Typically you just need to install akmod-nvidia or whatever it is called and it just works, but I've been running AMD and Intel GPU's with sufficient open source driver support for so long I've not needed to deal with this in a long time.
- jarcane 10y agoYes, that was the first thing I tried. Unfortunately I ran into all kinds of weird issues with the rendering after they were installed. Washed out colors, missing UI elements, general weirdness. I wasn't able to find a fix so I reverted to Nouveau since I mostly use Windows for gaming anyway. I might try again with Fedy or the manual way at some point next but just haven't had time yet.
- snuxoll 10y agoIs this a laptop by any chance? The mobile chipsets have some weird issues, especially if you are using an optimus device (I got bumblebee and akmod-nvidia working fine on my work provided W540 with both F22/F23, but the amount of effort was hardly worth it when I'm just staring at IntelliJ all day and the intel HD graphics are more than sufficient).
- jarcane 10y agoNope. Desktop. Phenom X4, GTX 750 Ti. My hardware and Linux seem to be allergic to one another for reasons I've yet to pin down. Fedora is one of the few distros that behaves at all on my machine.
- johnny22 10y agoyou could try the negativo17 nvidia driver package as well.
- jarcane 10y agoThanks. I'll take a look at those.
