Hello all,

I'm trying to install the KDE spin on a Dell XPS 15 and I can't seem to get the nVidia drivers to install.

I installed via a USB stick, and I had to add the dis_ucode_ldr switch to the boot options to get it to load and change to ACIP rather than RAID for the drive, but it installed without issue after that and seems to be working fine with the Noveau drivers, however I cannot seem to get nVidia drivers to install correctly. 

I'm trying to use the workstation RPMFusion repo, and they seem to install OK, but after trying the guides here:

https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA
https://fedoramagazine.org/install-nvidia-gpu/
(I don't have the install drivers option for this one, I think that's Gnome specific isn't it?)

I get similar results, namely a blank screen at login, which persists for more than 10 minutes, so I don't think it's still building the drivers.

If I switch to another tty I can startx and it will load KDE. It's like it's not loading the login screen.

I'm still searching through the logs but I've not found a smoking gun yet, but just in case, has anyone got this to work, and if so how did you do it?

Thanks,

Thomas
