How is it nobody is discussing the lack of nvidia drivers in the recent release of Fedora 25? Where are the drivers?

I was under the impression that they have had drivers built for Fedora 25 waiting for xwayland file system to come out.

Both xorg 1.19 and the NVIDIA driver with support for it were only released last week. 2. Having said that, there drivers are in the nonfree updates-testing repo.

Correct and also our wiki is updated http://rpmfusion.org/Howto/nVidia#Installing_the_drivers Current GeForce/Quadro/Tesla Supported on current stable Xorg server release. Including Fedora 25 Legacy GeForce 8/9/200 nvidia-340xx Supported up to Fedora 24. (Not supported on Fedora 25 and later). Legacy GeForce 6/7 nvidia-304xx Supported up to Fedora 24.

Tell me what hardware is fully supported with GPU processing for various apps that is equivalent to CUDA? I have searched. Bought AMD and got told that the hardware needs to be replaced by AMD as it wasn't the latest or greatest. Intel has not provided full 3D speed of Nvidia. Would love to stick with OS but not having much luck. So, if you know what hardware provides this, please provide a make and model. I would love to purchase it so I don't have the headaches you state are my choice

I have updated my PC to Fedora 25 and am running the 375.20 nvidia drivers with ease. Just found out how to install it. After installing the drivers, make sure to go to boot/grub2/grub.cfg and put rdblacklist=nouveau nouveau.modeset=0. You must remove what is there starting at quiet. -- All things are workable but don't all things work. Prov. 3:5 & 6

Even use a Titan X on one machine for gaming, loaded and operated perfectly except for a couple of updates where driver was not built from akmods. GeForce GTX 960 In the machine with a builtin AMD video card that would freeze (lock system) almost daily with no issues. Since moving to nVidia, no freezing issues. Uptime is only kernel updates. GeForce 9500 GT in a much older system, still works with nvidia driver from rpmfusion. Same, no kernel updates, no reboot. now used as a server so the nVidia drivers are overkill. I find things just work as default on machines.
