Fedora14 Video Card Driver Installation (disable nouveau kernel driver)

This morning, I am going to play a game similar to running a kart under fedora, but the driver does not support 3D. So I started the Driver Installation trip early in the morning. There are a lot of online materials, but they are not practical, after finding a solution, I will share my experience with you. My uname-R is 2.6.35.6-45. fc14.i686. PAE

 

Error message:

 

Error: You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing.

 

Error: The Nouveau kernel driver is currently in use by your system. This
Driver is incompatible with the NVIDIA driver.

 

1. First download the corresponding driver to www.nvidia.com

2. Then, the built-in 2D driverDisable

# Vi/boot/GRUB/grub. conf

......

Kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64 Ro root = UUID = eda55ec0-9a3b-4034-994f-57660811d3a9 rd_no_luks rd_no_lvm rd_no_md rd_no_dm lang = en_US.UTF-8 sysfont = latarcyrheb-sun16 keytable = US rhgb
Quiet3 rdblacklist = Nouveau

Initrd/boot/initramfs-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64.img

Add the red font to the current kernel version, add the 2D driver to the blacklist, and set it to start in text mode.

# Vi/etc/modprobe. d/blacklist. conf

Add the following content and save and exit

Blacklist Nouveau

3. Start the system at level 3 and edit/etc/inittab.

ID: 5: initdefault:

4. re-create the Boot Image

MV/boot/initramfs-$ (uname-R). img/boot/initramfs-$ (uname-R). IMG. bac

Dracut-V/boot/initramfs-$ (uname-R). IMG $ (uname-R)

5. restart the system, log on as root, and install the driver.

6. Change Level 3 to 5 and change quiet3 in grub. conf to quiet (that is, remove 3)

7. restart the system. OK!
