Steam In-Home Streaming hardware encoding) so they are packaged in another small package called nvidia-driver-NvFBCOpenGL. The NVIDIA OpenGL-based Framebuffer Capture (NvFBCOpenGL) libraries (NvFBC and NvIFR) are private APIs that are only available to NVIDIA approved partners for use in remote graphics scenarios (i.e.The package is still available as it’s required to speed up some configuration like multi-monitor setups with SLI Mosaic enabled from the command line, but not installed by default. nvidia-xconfig is not required on anything that uses the modular X.org directives, as it writes too much in the configuration file (keyboards, monitors, etc.) and the required entries should be written in separate configuration files under /etc/X11/.Sources are generated with a script and inserted individually in the various packages so it can be easily reproduced just by changing the version and rerunning the script.So in Totem, or any other libVA supported application you can benefit from VDPAU acceleration. Simplified packaging with much simpler and readable SPEC file.
This is to avoid pulling in the Nvidia drivers instead of the Mesa libraries or in place of the new open source OpenCL support that’s in Fedora.
RPM pulls in all correct requirements on its own.
What follows below, is a detailed explanation of all the “differences” from the various Nvidia driver packages that I was able to spot on the web and a detailed description on how to install components, etc. This packages try to comply as maximum to the Fedora Packaging Guidelines which means they have debuginfo packages, default Fedora’s GCC compile time options (where possible) and standard locations for binaries, data and docs. What’s different?įirst of all the packaging is a lot simplified more stuff is compiled from source, smaller packages and more options.
Otherwise, only the other Nvidia programs (mostly for CUDA development) will show up in the software center. Please note that the driver will show up only if your system matches one of the PCI ID supported by the driver. Starting from Fedora 25, the Nvidia software packages are available for installation by default also in Gnome Software. To install the repository on CentOS/RHEL: yum-config-manager -add-repo= To install the repository on a supported Fedora distribution, run as root the following command: dnf config-manager -add-repo=
Option with only CUDA components installed.
