[SOLVED] Configure Video Card Help NVIDIA

[1885]

We have a lab of
#lspci -m
01:00.0 "VGA compatible controller" "NVIDIA Corporation" "GM107 [GeForce GTX 745]" -ra2 "NVIDIA Corporation" "Device 1065"

From a previous post I get these errors on boot:
0.777014 nouveau failed to load fuc409c
0.777`02 nouveau failed to create 0x10000717

I'm not sure if its a BIOS setting or a driver problem.
It looks like nouveau is installed:
# locate nouveau
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.0-229.4.2.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau
/usr/lib/modules/3.10.0-229.4.2.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko
/usr/lib64/libdrm_nouveau.so.2
/usr/lib64/libdrm_nouveau.so.2.0.0
/usr/lib64/dri/nouveau_dri.so
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nouveau_drv.so
/usr/share/man/man4/nouveau.4.gz

Any ideas?

You could try the nvidia proprietary drivers as repackaged by ELRepo. Install elrepo-release, install nvidia-detect and run it, install the kmod-nvidia package it suggests.

Please uninstall the Nvidia driver you've installed before using the ELRepo packages. The ELRepo version will disable nouveau for you, so you do not need to do this task manually.

Thanks for the help. We got our base install completed using the on board Intel card.
When we get the NVIDIA working I'll post the results.

Nvidia drivers work very well.
nouveau was disabled with the install and we do not get errors on boot up.
Additionally we can use VGA, DVI and HDMI.
HDMI and VGA work in duel monitor mode.

Thanks for the help.
