I am running Kernel 3.10.0-957.27.2.el7.x86_64 on CentOS 7.6.1810, installed NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-430.40
to be able to use NVIDIA GM107M [GeForce GTX 860M].
Installation went smoothly until I wanted to configure it. when I run
[root@y5070 ~]# nvidia-settings -V -c :0
WARNING: NV-CONTROL extension not found on this Display.
ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system
according to nvidia-smi it’s all good
[root@y5070 ~]# nvidia-smi

The configuration for gdm.service is what I think I need to be generated as I can see the graphics but nvidia is not being used I don’t think.
I also tried using nvidia-xconfig but no luck, I had to delete the file generated because it won’t start gdm.service
nouveau is not loaded and nvidia is

I need to be able to run nvidia-settings for gdm.service to be able to pick up the config I would imagine.
