Description Mershl 2020-09-24 12:35:43 CEST

Hello leigh,

Thank you again for the excellent support of the nvidia packages on rpmfusion! This is a great enhancement to Fedora and would've been missed greatly otherwise.

The RTX 3xxx arrives in more and more households and 455.23.04 is necessary to boot the new generation of NVIDIA cards. Do you have a timeline to make 455.23.04 available for current Fedora 33 and Fedora 32 systems?

Btw.: It's not (really) feasible/possible to install the .fc34 package on a F32/F33 system, right?

Please have a look at the wiki
https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA#Latest.2FBeta_driver

I'm going to update the howto to even more ease the installation.

Hi Nicolas,

Thank you for your pointer to the NVIDIA howto. Unfortunatly, I think the instructions using kernel-devel and enable-repo=...rawhide are not applicable for Fedora Silverblue. I'll look into the work that has already been done for https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA#Silverblue. Maybe the same is applicable for a -beta package usable on Silverblue.

Sorry. Didn't mean to reopen the issue. Thank you very much again. I talked on IRC about the Silverblue way of installing the rawhide driver and we came up with the following, working solution:
