Well, start troubleshooting it. Those are standard steps unrelated to sue-prime.
Do you have the correct version matching your hardware? Do you have module at all (modinfo nvidia)? Is it loaded (lsmod)? Can you load it manually (modprobe nvidia)? If no, what is error message and messages in dmesg immediately after this command? If yes, is it probably blacklisted (/etc/modprobe.conf, /etc/modprobe.d)?
Ok, thank you. Let's see, if I got one step further... First: When I upgraded to 42.3 there was no nvidia repo for 42.3, so I left it with 42.2. No there is this repo, I changed to it, and updated all nvidia. It still doesn't work, but some things chanmged , at least.. Because of the long output of the commands I've put the in textfiles on my server: the module is here: modinfo nvidia: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/test/modinfo.txt it seems loaded: lsmod: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/test/lsmod.txt (as it seems loaded I did not try "modprobe nvidia") There is no /etc/modprobe.conf file or directory here. In the folder /etc/modprobe.d there is /etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf that contains "blacklist nvidiafb" /etc/modprobe.d/50-nvidia-default.conf that contains "options nvidia NVreg_DeviceFileUID=0 NVreg_DeviceFileGID=33 NVreg_DeviceFileMode=0660 install nvidia PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin; if /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install nvidia; then if /sbin/modprobe nvidia_uvm; then if [ ! -c /dev/nvidia-uvm ]; then mknod -m 660 /dev/nvidia-uvm c $(cat /proc/devices | while read major device; do if [ "$device" == "nvidia-uvm" ]; then echo $major; break; fi ; done) 0; chown :video /dev/nvidia-uvm; fi; fi; if [ ! -c /dev/nvidiactl ]; then mknod -m 660 /dev/nvidiactl c 195 255; chown :video /dev/nvidiactl; fi; devid=-1; for dev in $(ls -d /sys/bus/pci/devices/*); do vendorid=$(cat $dev/vendor); if [ "$vendorid" == "0x10de" ]; then class=$(cat $dev/class); classid=${class%%00}; if [ "$classid" == "0x0300" -o "$classid" == "0x0302" ]; then devid=$((devid+1)); if [ ! -c /dev/nvidia${devid} ]; then mknod -m 660 /dev/nvidia${devid} c 195 ${devid}; chown :video /dev/nvidia${devid}; fi; fi; fi; done; /sbin/modprobe nvidia_drm; if [ ! -c /dev/nvidia-modeset ]; then mknod -m 660 /dev/nvidia-modeset c 195 254; chown :video /dev/nvidia-modeset; fi; fi" /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-default.conf that contains only "blacklist nouveau" ------------ So, once again, now with the new drivers, I run the script to switch to nvidia, and again could not log out. I "shutdown -r now" and when booting the system "freezed" at some point, i.e. just nothing happened anymore: the screen with the boot messages upt to this point just staid there and nothing more. I booted with init 3 and copied the Xorg-files: Xorg.0.log: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/test/Xorg.save1.txt (which I guess is the one of the failed boot?) Xorg.0.log.old: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/test/Xorg.save.old1.txt (which I guess is the one of the former "intel session" in which I run the switch-to-nvidia script) /var/log/messages: https://www.daniel-bauer.com/test/messages3.txt - begins after the "shutdown"-command - failed boot, pressed power button - boot into level 3, run script to switch to intel, shutdown - normal boot Now there's a lot of Nvidia-messages, but none that sais something useful /to me/...
