Installing nvidia on fedora silverblue is impossible so now i have to install a meme distro.
Thanks redhat. not.
>>
>>107053204
Arch for the win.
>>
Just use regular fedora, it has some of the best handling of the free nvidia driver and never fucks up the packages.
I understand the initial install is a bitch but the documentation is concise and less of a cluster fuck vs something like tumblweed
>>
>>107053204
Use something that's not a server os, like mac os or windows 10.
>>
>>107053204
Just switch over to the nvidia image.
https://github.com/ublue-os/hwe/pkgs/container/silverblue-nvidia using rpmostree.

is this the power of linuks?

Nvidia could also provide drivers for Linux. Its their hardware after all which they sell. So blaming RedHat is one way, but you could also blame Nvidia or yourself for not buying AMD GPUs if you run Linux.

I managed it.

How did you do it?
Not op. did you rebase?
>>
>>107053318
Nvidia opensourced their drivers whats the excuse
>>
>>107053427
Layered on the driver from RPM fusion. But OP should just rebase.
>>

>>107054401
Redhat isnt. Its a multibillion dollar corporation.
>>
>>107053448
They really didn't
>>
>>107053204
you probably have to use rpm fusion
>>
>>107053427
Just install nvidia drivers using rpm-ostree it was literally two commands if i remember correctly.

only have yourself to blame for buying meme hardware from literal satanic chinks and jews.

see the silverblue part of this section:
https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration#Command_Line_Setup_using_rpm

Do whatever this says:
https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA?highlight=%28%5CbCategoryHowto%5Cb%29#OSTree_.28Silverblue.2FKinoite.2Fetc.29

Most information about rpmfusion should be in the fedora quick docs or the fedora silverblue docs I think, do read them sometime before getting stuck again in the future.
>>
>>107055718
Two commands and a restart I believe.
>>
>>107055847
I did all that. its okay. I installed bizzard or whatever its called.
>>
>>107053204
>silverblue
>neither sliver

>>107053204
you could install ublue, it comes with nvidia drivers preinstalled. Bluefin for a better silverblue experience, Aurora for a better Kinoite experience and Bazzite (GNOME or KDE) for a better gaming experience.
>>
>>107053318
Could package the driver like every other distro already does as 74% of users have an nvidia card.

>>107053226

>>107056309
Fedora is retarded like that and I say this as a long time user. They do this for ideological reasons, but newbies don't realize some of the stuff they may need is rpm

>>
>>107056634
Yeah but the bulk of the driver is still propietary
>>
>>107053204
Nobara. 4090. Reporting in.
I’m in pain. But it kinda works.
>>
>>107053204
Silverblue is a meme distro...
>>
>>107057163
Good thing I use kinoite.
>>
>>107056634
a kernel module isn't the driver
>>
>>107057163
Every distro is a meme distro because Linux is a meme OS on desktops. The atomic distros are the most usable and least meme ones.
>>
>>107053204

I am using AMD 6800xt currently running windows 10, fedora, and hackintosh. Every single one has good performance and native support inc. hackintosh.
>>
>>107058279
does hackintosh even work nowdays on recent macos version?
>>
>>107053204
worked without problems for me by following this guide https://github.com/Comprehensive-Wall28/Nvidia-Fedora-Guide

Linux is just a colonel, he can't even install Debian.
>>
>>107053204
just install Bazzite, man. No need to lose time on solved things.
>meme distro
None of the Universal Blue distros are memes per se. They just save you some troubles like what you're bitching right now.
>>
>>107060454
>None of the Universal Blue distros are memes per se
Universal Blue is effectively a Fedora project, so it's not a meme at all. It's similar to how rpmfusion is technically "not Fedora" for legal reasons, but it's really just Fedora's non-free repo.

Why doesn't Fedora just have an option to enable and install ALL the useful proprietary stuff in the installer so everything works out of the box? Stupid fucking freetards
>>
>>107061819
afaik it gives you the option to add the repository immediately at first install.
>>
>>107061819
>i want a just works and everything setup distro and want to use fedora
>but i wont use universal blue which is fedora made to have everything setup and be just works
let me guess you use brave browser
>>
>>107061819
it does it by default in their universal blue images
>>
>>107061819
https://github.com/ublue-os/hwe/pkgs/container/silverblue-nvidia rebase to this and your problem goes away if you are using an atomic version with gnome. There is also a kde version.
