I’m trying to install the nvidia driver on centos 7.1. I see instructions to remove nouveau and disable the kernel module. When I create this file and put this options in:
disable-nouveau.conf
blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0
and reboot, and run the nvidia installer again, it says nouveau kernel driver is installed. How do I disable the nouveau kernel driver in 7.1? Is it different than in 7.0?
Thanks,

What instructions? If you use the nvidia drivers from elrepo.org, it will automatically set up the xorg and kernel command line config.

I used this to start:
sudo yum install epel-release
but yum list|grep nvidia doesn’t show anything in epel.

EPEL is not elrepo ...

You can also use the CUDA repo to get the latest nVidia drivers. Both ELRepo and CUDA set the values for you.

Yes. I’m looking at that site now and added it and now I’m getting several items with yum list|grep nvidia.

Yes, once you have the elrepo repository configured, the general procedure is:
yum install nvidia-detect
then:
yum install $(nvidia-detect)
then reboot and you should be good to go :-)
The second command will automatically install the correct nvidia driver packages for your device.

That’s pretty straight forward. Thanks.

ElRepo is not EPEL.
Thanks all for the nvidia tips (especially elrepo.org). I have the nvidia driver installed and working on 7.1!
