Description of problem: Lors de l'installation de mageia 7 suite à la fin des mises à jour de mageia 6, l'écra plasma n'a pas voulu se rétablir. La raison était que ma carte graphique étant Geforce GT 610, le pilote installé était dkms-nvidia-current-430.64-1.mga7.nonfree. Des forumeurs de MLO m'ont dit de forcer l'installation de dkms-nvidia-current-430.64-1.mga7.nonfree que le systême n'a pas trouvé. J'ai donc du faire XFdrake et "Nouveau". Cela a permis l'installation de X.Org Video Driver: 24.0 qui a permis le retour à l'écran Plasma. Cela n'apparait pas normal.

Thanks papoteur for the card details. Mageia 7 *does* have dkms-nvidia-current-430.64-1.mga7.nonfree "NVIDIA kernel module for GeForce 635 and later cards. This is to be used with the x11-driver-video-nvidia-current package." about which the Description is confusing. It says that this is what was installed by Mageia 7 - and did not work; then that the advice was to 'force' the installation of the same thing - which was not found. But it seems that this was not right for the graphics card here (older). But you, Jean, succeeded in making the system work by going to Nouveau. Très bien. Etes-vous content maintenant ? Pouvez-vous dire si le problème est survenu d'un 'upgrade' M6->M7, ou un nouveau installation - de quel ISO (Plasma Live ou Classic) ? = Was this from an upgrade, or new installation, from which ISO? I think this could be closed 'resolved/worksforme'; but assigning it to the drivers group because the root of the problem looks as if the installation chose the wrong video driver for the actual hardware. Perhaps just a comment; Jean has won through, even though his experience "does not seem normal".
