Hi Enzo,

When the desktop works properly and everything is displayed as expected, you can ignore the message ... nothing to worry about. :)

Hi Enzo,

I assume the desktop animation doesn't work because you are running the system in a vmware virtual machine. :)

Hi Christian,

Not is a physical desktop, is not a virtual environment, i think that you say because in the log that I show in the last post say:

[root@localhost-desktop earroyo]# glxinfo | grep OpenGL OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc. OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.9, 256 bits)

I dont know why show vmware, I run over physical desktop, this is my dmidecode

Hi Enzo,

Okay - you have a very new NVIDIA graphics adapter which is not fully supported by the open source nouveau drivers so far. You may want to consider installing the proprietary NVIDIA drivers in order to make full usage of the capabilities of the GEFORCE GTX 1060 graphics. If you decide to do that, I can recommend to install the NVIDIA drivers from the RPM Fusion repositories. :)

Regards,
Christian

Oh okay, thank you very much Christian, by your time and patience, last ask, if I installed from repository need to do some changes to disable nouveau or just installed and the kernel will set automatically it in the next boot?

Hi Enzo,

This is all you have to do to install the NVIDIA drivers - open a terminal and execute these commands :

sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/rpmfusion-free-release-7.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-7.noarch.rpm

sudo yum update
sudo yum install akmod-nvidia kernel-devel
sudo reboot

The nouveau drivers are getting disabled automatically - after the restart NVIDIA drivers are in use.

Cheers :)
