In Linux Mint I can connect to a PPA library that contains all of the NVidia drivers. (Of course, we also have a Driver Manager which does a fantastic job of working with them)
Does Fedora have an equivalent driver library? And, if so, how do I access it and then update my drivers to the latest?
Another question is : How do I see what driver I’m using at the moment?
We have COPR in Fedora land, but it is not necessary for drivers since it is built into image (assuming you use the Nvidia image). If you do need to install an app that is from COPR, I’d suggest only doing it in Distrobox unless you have to.
Ref:
As for version driver, it should be in System Settings, at the most bottom of sidebar menu, should have a page About PC.
Thank you for your response! I just began using Bazzite (and Fedora for that matter) for the first day. So I finally found it: I had to go to system settings / About this system / Advanced settings / OpenCL and it is buried in the list of useless (to me) text. Version 570.144 is damn good. I am also impressed with the level of hardware recognition…it even knows my keyboard!!! But having been a backend developer for more years than many people were born in the forum, reading about an operating system is not my preferred way of using my time. HOWEVER with that said I will start reading what you sent me. I DO want to learn.
That’s fair, I only started reading the docs recently myself. For what it’s worth, it’s clearly written, with subjects of interest cleanly separated in the top level categories.
