This is a guide for Fedora 39 users (kernel 6.8+), howto install NVIDIA LEGACY proprietary Linux drivers (manually using .run files) and disable Nouveau driver. Same method works with Fedora 38/37 too. Linux Kernels 6.8+ are tested.
Currently working NVIDIA drivers are:
- 390.xx (390.157) Patched
- 340.xx (340.138) Patched
This guide works with NVIDIA GeForce 6/7/8/9/200/300/400/500/600/700/800/900/10/20/30/40 series cards.
This method allow you easily install patched LEGACY versions of NVIDIA drivers.
GNOME 45 with NVIDIA 390.xx / 340.xx drivers works normally.
I have tested this guide with NVIDIA 340.xx (patched), 390.xx (patched) on latest Fedora with kernel 6.5+. To get patched version of NVIDIA, please check following video to see, howto use inttf NVIDIA Patcher Script:
