(F-42 stand-alone workstation; gnome)
good morning,
My F-42 workstation had 21 mixed crashes in a few hours late yesterday,
and more in a matter of minutes just a few minutes ago. It was installed
yesterday afternoon. It's practically unusable. I'm now on a windows-10
box (separate hardware, no dual boot).
In my "securing..." thread, Samuel said:
"...Anaconda won't install the proprietary NVidia drivers, so you must
be using nouveau. If it works, then great. If you have issues, you
might want to install the drivers from rpmfusion."
I don't know if the crashes are related to using nouveau, or due to
something else.
I do not game.
The most graphics-intense thing that I do (as far as I know) is watch
youtube videos with a resolution of about 1.4k.
So I'm wondering...
Suppose I remove the graphics card (nvidia GeForce GTX 660; 12 years
old) entirely.
1. What do I lose by going without the graphics card? What are the risks?
2. Would I have to install Fedora-42 Workstation all over again?
I removed the card, looked around, and saw no problems as Felix talked
about. But then, most stuff is encased or covered.
The workstation rebooted fine without the card. No problems so far. So
the CPU does have integrated graphics, which answers Felix and Samuel.
There is one cost: this was a 2-monitor workstation; now it's only one.
I'm going back to the "security..." thread. If I get through the rest
of that, I'll be more confident removing the graphics card helped.
