So, having copied the akmods.service file to /etc/systemd/system (as
Harald Reindl suggested) and added --force it is now building and
installing the kmod on reboot.
(Actually I also removed --from-init which I realise now was probably a
mistake but probably not causing the problems I'm seeing here.)
However, the kernel module is not loaded and so the graphical display does
not start until either I reboot again or change run levels and run modprobe
nvidia.
Any idea whats going on here?
Hard to say... It's supposed to run prior to the display manager so I'm not
sure why a reboot at that point would be necessary.
One thing I just noticed is there doesn't seem to be a
display-manager.service symlink anymore, when gdm.service is enabled, an
systemd unit alias to display-manager.service is created... I would think
that would still work but it doesn't seem to be in your case.
I wonder if I should change the requirement to "Before=graphical.target"?
Thanks,
