[elrepo] Question about kmod-nvidia and driver package

[Hamp (US), Michael P]

In one of my environments the nvidia-settings command doesn't seem to work at all.

I was just running tests on my lab computers and it brings up the Gui, but it is also throwing errors.  Any recommendations you can give would be much appreciated.

"nvidia-settings

ERROR: Error querying enabled displays on GPU 0 (Missing Extension).


ERROR: Error querying connected displays on GPU 0 (Missing Extension).


ERROR: nvidia-settings could not find the registry key file. This file should have been installed along with this driver at /usr/share/nvidia/nvidia-application-profiles-key-documentation. The application profiles
       will continue to work, but values cannot be prepopulated or validated, and will not be listed in the help text. Please see the README for possible values and desc"

$ rpm -qf `which nvidia-settings`
nvidia-x11-drv-410.93-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64

Why did you think it wasn't included?
