kernel 4.7.3 and module nvidia
by François Patte
Bonjour,
I updated my f24 this morning: a new kernel is provided and using the
akmod-nvidia, X won't start....
I logged on console and tried startx but it failed with this message:
FATAL: nvidia module not found in /lib/modules/4.7.3.-200.fc24.x86_64
Of course, the nvidia module is in
/lib/modules/4.7.3.-200.../extra/nvidia-340xx
Exactly like for the previous kernel (4.7.2)....
I copied the nvidia.ko in /lib/modules/4.7.3.-200.fc24.x86_64 but,
startx failed with the same message which is a lack of honesty!
What happens?
Thank you.

Dear All,
I was able to connect to a vpn server (PPTP) with no difficulties. But
now, I get always the following message:
"VPN connection failed because service stopped".
From a MS Windows machine, I can connect to the referred vpn server.
Could someone please help me?
Thanks in advance,

Hi!
Not sure whether my post made it to the list. Got a new kernel yesterday

OT: what does this expression mean?
by Mike Wright
Hi all,
This one's not in my unix nutshell book :/
Extracting the sound from some music videos (mp4's) into mp3's:
for f in "$(ls *.mp4)"; do
ffmpeg -i "$f" -c:a libmp3lame "${f%.mp4}.mp3";
done
I'm not familiar with this notation: ${f%.mp4}, where $f is the name of
an mp4, e.g. "my favorite video.mp4". Can somebody explain this to me?
TIA,
Mike Wright

by JD
Cntrl-Alt-F[234567] do not switch me to vty AFTER I login to the gui.

Any hints about this?
