A few weeks ago I was trying to install KVM on my laptop, I bought a new laptop and immediately after I install the nVidia drivers I receive the following error "libfcoe_device_notification: NETDEV_UNREGISTER lo"
I spent several hours googling the error and there are several issues, however none of them are related to my situation.
I am running CentOS 6.2
<snip> You say that you deleted xorg.conf, and could then boot into runlevel 5 using the default drivers. If you do an lsmod, does it show nouveau?
When I do lsmod I see nvidia

Second question: does the version of kmod-nvidia support your graphics card?
This is interesting now that you mention it, the sticker on the laptops says "nvidia GEFORCE GT 635M 2GB" and when I run lspci I see the following. 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GF106 [GeForce GT 555M] (rev a1).
I verified that nvidia 635M is supported on the nvidia site. Version:295.53 CertifiedRelease Date:2012.05.16Operating System:Linux

Oh, and did you yum install it, so that you got nvidia-x11-drv?
I installed it using yum.
But what I was asking was whether this version of kmod-nvidia uses the nvidia-released support for that card. You said you bought a new laptop that this is on - is that brand new out of the box, or new-to-you, used?
The correct version is x86_64 [wildfire@wildfire ~]$ rpm -qa | grep nvidia nvidia-x11-drv-295.53-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64 kmod-nvidia-295.53-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64 [wildfire@wildfire ~]$
I don't know if this will shed any light but usually before you see the login screen you will see nvidia once it have been installed correctly, however I am see intel which is strange.
*That* is extremely strange. Could there be a second, Intel, video?
