Also once re-installed, please attach the output of
nvidia-bug-report.sh to our bugzilla
That will have all the information I need to debug the problem.
I will submit the bug report later tonight when I can get on the
machine. Is there a particular bug or should I create one.
I wanted to use EFI but with the change in kernel and signed modules. I
didn't get it working. It was a new machine this spring after a fight
with a couple of defective Gigabyte MBs. I was not in any mood to fight
with the kernel.
The machine needs Windows for two games that won't work in Wine due to
the anti-cheat software.
From what I can see, the akmod didn't build the rpm properly and thus
didn't install it properly. After building the kmod rpm, removing the
old one and installing the new one, a reboot worked.
Thanks for the help.
