Although I made a small detour this time, nevertheless, it's because you show in your writings that it is possible that I don't get discouraged. Without your tutorials I'd probably never dare and try installing so many new Linux distros on my box. After two difficult days to get to this point, I know why a graphics card is called a piece of HARDware. The Nvidia card was finally up and running. Next, I removed the x.org glamor library in the Software section of CentOS
#HOW TO INSTALL NVIDIA DRIVERS IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A DRIVER INSTALL#
Since Stella is based on CentOS but with additional software already installed, I decided to take a look at it, I noticed that STELLA uses the ElRepo rpm to install the Nvidia drivers and take care of the nouveau removal. Repairing the source partitions with Clonezilla does not help. Never had any problem with Windows, openSUSE, Ubuntu and Fedora backup creation, why CentOS?! ext4 partitions, one for / and the other for /home, as usual. But to no avail until I remove Nouveau.Īnd one more note: Clonezilla fails to backup my CentOS partitions! "extfsclone.c: bitmap error at 1 group"

run does not launch any process at init 3, only. Boy, CentOS is not very user-friendly to say the least. Then I downloaded the appropriate Nvidia driver, but even though I added "blacklist nouveau" without quotes in the /etc/modprobe.d/nf, Nouveau still loads at startup, so the Nvidia install fails. After you have downloaded the file, change to the directory containing the downloaded file, and as the root user run the executable: cd yourdirectory sh The.

I tried following your guide with the Gnome desktop, but I can't even get the two repos added as instructed, yum reports errors and the install failsĬurl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not FoundĪfter long and lonely hours, I finally managed to install some repos using the software interface in the System Tools section.
