Marzzle posted:whats the big advantage of CentOS vs something like debian unstable? i get the impression it's sorta fedora: server edition but i have never run it It's super long term support, solid as a rock, secure, and not built by morons. Fedora is to Rhel as Debian testing is to Debian Stable.

Fedora for the desktop, Cent for the servers. Ubuntu is trash and so is Debian. What I'm saying here is Slackware is the best.

akadajet posted:uh... yeah actually. 750ti That card is a really odd duck and I had the same issue with mine. I ended up having to drop into the console and install the nvidia driver that way. Works fine after that, and it's a lovely solution I know. Every other nvidia card I have thrown at Fedora works fine, all the way up to the 980, but the 750 just doesn't like the open source driver.

akadajet posted:yep. I don't think the other issues are related to the card. I couldn't reboot with "reboot" in single user mode either. Oh, yeah. Is /sbin in your path? I think reboot is shoved in there I always dropped to init 3 for poo poo like this, but it sounds like something is messed up from your install.
