If your intention is to use current NVIDIA drivers, you could try the download from their website. I´ve had good success with installing them directly from the download NVIDIA provides. I know we aren´t supposed to do that, but after using that for years and then using distribution-provided NVIDIA drivers, I went back to the NVIDIA package because that was far more trouble-free and continues to be so. When you get a new kernel and when some libraries are updated, you need to reinstall the NVIDIA drivers, but I can live with that. > > a: uname -a: 3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Sep 12 22:26:13 > UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux > b: > Installing : kmod-nvidia-384.90-1.el7_4.elrepo.x86_64 > 1/2 > > Broadcast message from systemd-journald at lyon.cit.nih.gov (Wed 2017-09-27 > 11:43:12 EDT): > > dracut[32409]: /lib/modules/3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64//modules.dep is missing. > Did you run depmod? > > > Message from syslogd at lyon at Sep 27 11:43:12 ... > dracut:/lib/modules/3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64//modules.dep is missing.
