I am new on fedora. I have installed nvida driver :
$ lspci |grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF106 [GeForce GTS 450] (rev a1)
Now i want to know does my gpu is enable or it is working? Because as you can see on my image, on memory gpu usage wrote not supported
First of all: Have you installed the right driver for NVidia-card? How did you install the driver and from where? Have you installed the NVidia tools too? Look also here: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/ques... (here you will find additional Links for doing NVidia things right!).
I have installed NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.87.run that have downloaded from nvidia web site. I think this is a right driver . I installed my driver according this page . What is your mean about NVidia tools? NVIDIA X server setting installed on my fedora. http://pasteall.org/pic/335197367740a...@heliosstyx
Okay. There(X-Server) settings you can check, if your Nvidia card is used really. That is Imean with Nvidia tools. Ed209 is all right, what he says.
What is wrong with using rpmfusion? Goto
https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA
and read the procedure there. It all boils down in most cases to enter as root
dnf install vdpauinfo libva-vdpau-driver libva-utils
and enjoying your new nvidia card.
You can also open Gnome Software and go to Add-ons > Hardware Drivers tab > click and install :)
