Good Day,
I am not 100% certain if here is the right place to bring this up, however if this is the wrong place for this please redirect me to right place.
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 LSB Version: :core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.0-amd64:graphics-4.0-noarch:printing-4.0-amd64:printing-4.0-noarch Distributor ID: CentOS Description: CentOS release 6.2 (Final) Release: 6.2 Codename: Final
Below are some of the errors that I extracted from the logs

Is there anything that I can do to resolve the issue so that I am able to use the kmod-nvidia drivers on CentOS 6.2?
Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated.

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.

<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?

Oh, and did you yum install it, so that you got nvidia-x11-drv?
mark, who just noticed that he's got that, *and* nvidia-x11-drv-32bit, on his x86_64 system for some reason....

When I do lsmod I see nvidia

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 Language:English (U.S.)File Size:33.1 MB

Oh, and did you yum install it, so that you got nvidia-x11-drv?
I installed it using yum.
mark, who just noticed that he's got that, *and*nvidia-x11-drv-32bit, on his x86_64 system for some reason....
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.

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?

*That* is extremely strange. Could there be a second, Intel, video?

Yes the version of kmod-nvidia supports it and it's new out of the box

Don't see any thing that indicates that there is a second intel video only thing that is intel is the processor and the chipset

That advert says the laptop has Optimus technology which is Nvidia speak for it also having integrated graphics, Intel in this case I would assume.
To the best of my knowledge Nvidia do not currently support Optimus on Linux. Is is possible to disable the Intel onboard graphics? I don't have any first hand experience of these products.
You should probably ask on the nvidia linux forums if you require more detailed help, or start by googling "nvidia optimus linux" and see what comes up.

You are correct, that explains why I am seing intel and Nvidia.
To the best of my knowledge Nvidia do not currently support Optimus on
Linux. Is is possible to disable the Intel onboard graphics? I don't have any first hand experience of these products.
Unfortunately, there is no option in the BIOS to disable intel graphic
card. In future I must do more researsh before I make such purchase.
You should probably ask on the nvidia linux forums if you require more
detailed help, or start by googling "nvidia optimus linux" and see what comes up.
Thanks, I believe that I am heading in the right direction, Any graphic card will work for now as I only bought the laptop to play with KVM. I keep you guys posted if I get it working on CentOS 6.

Regarding the lack of Optimus support for the Nvidia Linux driver, you may want to try 'bumblebee' [1] available from ELRepo:
http://elrepo.org/tiki/bumblebee
bumblebee and the required packages are currently in the testing repository. With enough feedback, they can be promoted to the main repository.

Thanks Akemi,
I have installed Fedora and Ubuntu on a USB drive and I was able to get bumblebee to work, however I was not so successful when I tried it on CentOS 6.2. I used the packages from ELRepo and they were installed successfully but it did no work from the get go. Modify the config file and I will still boot up with the intel driver.
