[elrepo] Announcement: EL7 Updated NVIDIA drivers for RHEL 7.1

[Farkas Levente]

Hi,
it strange since it's not working for me. ie:
installed pacakges:
kernel-3.10.0-123.20.1.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-229.1.2.el7.x86_64
nvidia-x11-drv-32bit-346.47-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-346.47-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64
nvidia-detect-346.47-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64
nvidia-x11-drv-346.47-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64

if i boot with the old 3.10.0-123.20.1 kernel then everything is working.
if i boot with the new latest 7.1 kernel-3.10.0-229.1.2 X don't even start.
which is the opposite then what i expect.
in xorg's log:
[   196.943] (EE) NVIDIA: Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module.
Please see the
[   196.943] (EE) NVIDIA:     system's kernel log for additional error
messages and
[   196.943] (EE) NVIDIA:     consult the NVIDIA README for details.
[   196.943] (EE) No devices detected.
but i can't see anything in the system log.
anybody has any tipp?
