3. 3. Installing NVIDIA Driver

   Next to Install NVIDIA Fedora Driver
   First, possibly Check Display Card Model
   And then Search the NVIDIA WebSite for your Card Supporting Drivers

   NVIDIA Driver Searching Page

   Then lookup the available NVIDIA Driver on the Dnf Repository play:

   dnf search akmod-nvidia

   So for the latest Release run:

   sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia

   Before to confirm the Transaction Check for the Driver Version on the Shell output:

   

   But if Not Available the Minimum required Release then see instead: How to Download and Install the Latest NVIDIA Generic Linux Driver!
   So currently to Setup the former one:

   sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia-470xx

   Instead, for the Legacy ones:

   sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-390xx akmod-nvidia-390xx

   Or again:

   sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx akmod-nvidia-340xx

   And in case if you do Not find in the Repo just the Last then take the Nearest one…
   If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo
   If some Issues then See the Readme file on Bottom…
   And Possibly to Configure the X Server after Setup run:

   nvidia-xconfig

   Last, to Load your barely New Graphics Driver Reboot with:

   sudo reboot
