NVIDIA Drivers and Settings

Install NVIDIA drivers on CentOS 7

First make sure you do the following:

yum install libglvnd-devel

Notes from 4 June 2022

  • When I installed 515.48.07, I did not have the libglvnd-devel installed. So I thought it was going to fail, but it actually kept going.
  • It took about 3 minutes to finish.
  • I answered Yes to update the X configuration (but where is the file?)
  • It said it was going to make a backup (but where)?
  • Rebooted, screen came up OK after a delay of a few seconds

To find current NVIDIA driver version:

nvidia-smi

The following commands might be useful for updating the X server settings with NVIDIA graphics cards:

nvidia-settings
gdm-restart
