My issue is the same one that I discussed in a topic I created a couple of months ago, although I wrongly thought a message was an error causing my problem.
Specs:
Processor (1): AMD Phenom II X4 965
Processor (2): AMD FX-9590*
Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
GPU (1): GeForce GTX 460
GPU (2): GeForce GTX 570**
*I upgraded my CPU a few weeks back and the problem is still here
**I also upgraded my GPU, and again, the problem persisted after the upgrade
I am using Fedora 20, fully updated, using the kmod-nvidia package from RPM Fusion. I’ve also tried a manual install. I start my computer in multi-user mode, log in, run startx, and after 2-5 seconds of a completely blank screen, the output from startx just says the X server has quit. I am unable to find an error anywhere.
The most confusing part of this problem is that Debian works fine with the latest Nvidia driver, and so did Fedora 20 until a particular update about 2 months ago when I first made the previous topic. It’s unfortunate that I hate Debian :( I much prefer to use Fedora.
Nouveau works, but it doesn’t recognise my monitor as being HD, i.e. it runs in 4:3 mode (1280x1024 I think). I need the Nvidia driver as I plan to play games and work on graphics/GPGPU projects on it.
Also, this is after a clean install of Fedora. All I did after installing was a yum update and then followed these instructions.
If you need any other log files, please ask. Any help would be appreciated!
