<div> Just tried this again with a completely fresh install. Still not much luck.</div>
<div><br>
It would appear that I am unable to load to nVidia drivers. I keep failing with a "Required key not available" message.</div>
<div>When running startx (after booting with init 3), I also get this error "xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O (Operation not permitted)". I get this while running both "startx" and "sudo startx".</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In order to try and circumvent the "Required key not available" error I tried to disable secure boot. However, this option is greyed out in my BIOS/UEFI settings and something I changed is now preventing me from re-entering the BIOS/UEFI settings (will probably need to reset the BIOS/UEFI memory, but that will have to wait for now).</div>

How to manually install NVIDIA graphics driver<br>
<br>
using yum or dnf (I prefer dnf so I will use that)<br>
<br>
#dnf clean all<br>
#dnf update<br>
#dnf install gcc kernel-devel dkms<br>
<br>
download NVIDIA driver from nvidia.com and cd to the download directory<br>
#chmod +x NVIDIA-XXX.run (the NVIDIA driver, for instance <br>
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-343.13.run)<br>
<br>
#vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and insert a line with text <br>
"blacklist nouveau" (without quotes)<br>
#vi /etc/sysconfig/grub and insert this text <br>
"rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau" (without quotes) and the end<br>
of the line beginning with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= making sure the text is <br>
inside the last quotation mark<br>
<br>
#grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg<br>
<br>
#dnf remove xorg-x11-drv-nouveau.x86x_64 (this is 64bit driver - if you <br>
have a 32bit operating system it will be 32bit driver)<br>
<br>
#reboot<br>
<br>
When you are in grub and the and your operating system kernel is <br>
highlighted as the one you are booting to press the "e" on the keyboard <br>
to edit the line<br>
Then at the end of this line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= still inside <br>
the ending quotes insert this text "init 3" (without quotes)<br>
press F10 to reboot<br>
<br>
you should then come to a command prompt where you log on as a root user<br>
cd to the download directory where the NVIDIA driver located<br>
#./NVIDIA-XXX.run (for instance ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-343.13.run)<br>
The NVIDIA installer will start<br>
Accept the license agreement<br>
Install 32 bit compatibility (if you are on a 64bit machine)<br>
Choose to automatically update nvidia-xconfig-utility<br>
<br>
reboot and log into graphical mode or from command line using root init 5<br>
<br>
Hope this helps<br>
<br>
