Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

So I have downloaded and installed the following:

elrepo-release-6-12.el6.elrepo.noarch.rpm<http://elrepo.reloumirrors.net/elrepo/el6/x86_64/RPMS/elrepo-release-6-12.el6.elrepo.noarch.rpm>

I then tried to install nvidia-detect using these methods:

yum install $(nvidia-detect) - As per the Elrepo website
and also
yum install nvidia-detect

Neither of these worked as it says there are no packages available.

Do I have to go through another method to install this?

Kind regards,

Kelly

Hi there,

I am having great difficulty getting an Nvidia driver to install on CentOS 6 and thus I wanted to use Elrepo. But when I use the command below it says it can't open the website:

yum install https://www.elrepo.org/elrepo-release-6.el6.elrepo.noarch.rpm

So does Elrepo not support CentOS 6 anymore?




Support for EL6 was retired after the distro was itself EOLed but you can still find the packages in the elrepo archives
