Comment 3 peter winterflood 2017-12-23 01:51:21 CET

tested the following on a pentium northwood 2.8 gig 
1 gig ram
msi-6763 motherboard
geforce 7300GT 512k ram.

plasma interface.
sdddm login.

dkms-nvidia304-304.137-2.mga6.nonfree.i586.rpm
nvidia304-cuda-opencl-304.137-2.mga6.nonfree.i586.rpm
nvidia304-devel-304.137-2.mga6.nonfree.i586.rpm
nvidia304-doc-html-304.137-2.mga6.nonfree.i586.rpm
x11-driver-video-nvidia304-304.137-2.mga6.nonfree.i586.rpm

all installed OK

rebooted and logged in SDDM 

plasma desktop starts no problem.

only minor glitch is after installation you cant use the start power/session reboot as it just crashes you have to open a terminal and reboot.

once thats done once it shutsdown/reboots no problem.

this was a freshly installed and updated system before applying the above update.

tested x86-64

Installed the dkms package which built on boot, no regressions noted.  Works as expected.
