The latest software upgrade of my MythTv Frontend dropped support for my video card, so I guess its time to go shopping.
This happened to me. I have an Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 and Fedora 40.
- my NVidia card is no longer supported by current proprietary drivers
- it is supported by "legacy" proprietary drivers
- the Nouveau driver isn't good enough for some reason. It crashes when I have too many browser pages.
- I wish to switch to Wayland
- the legacy proprietary driver won't work with Wayland
Is that what's going on for you?
No, I have an older card. a GT 350. For years I have been using the nvidia-legacy-390xx series of 'old' nvidia drivers. But after a recent upgrade I had no graphical support after boot. I had an nvidia kernel module, but glx couldn't find support for my video card. Later, I saw some evidence that support for my card was being dropped out the legacy support, so I am guessing that is what happened.
I hate hours of brain salad surgery because I make too many mistakes. --- Post to this mailing list talk@gtalug.org Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
