Bug ID: 1184127 Summary: akmod-nvidia-340xx requires forced akmods rebuild Product: Fedora Version: 21 Component: kmod Assignee: kmod-maint@lists.fedoraproject.org Reporter: aferrazz@redhat.com QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: jonathan@jonmasters.org, kmod-maint@lists.fedoraproject.org, msivak@redhat.com, vpavlin@redhat.com

Description of problem: After installing the legacy akmod-nvidia-340xx package from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing for Fedora 21, all required kmods aren't automatically created on reboot. Instead, akmods --force must be executed.

How reproducible: Always, as long as the machine being tested has a graphics card compatible with the akmod-nvidia-340xx package.

Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RPM Fusion free and nonfree repositories for Fedora 21. 2. Execute "yum install akmod-nvidia-340xx.x86_64 --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing". 3. Reboot into a graphical session.

Actual results: Graphics drivers will not be loaded and the graphical login will fail. If using Gnome 3, a "Oops! Something went wrong" error screen will appear.

Expected results: A graphical login using newly-installed drivers should succeed.
