NVIDIA Drivers and Settings
Install NVIDIA drivers on CentOS 7
- For "tidewater", the graphics card is GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti]
- To find it on https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx drill down to:
- GeForce > GeForce 10 Series > GeForce GTX 1050 Ti > Linux 64-bit > Production
- You can also find the latest production version on https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/
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
