NVidia GTX 980 Fedora vs older kernels

[Nigel Sollars]

Hi,

To take a pure stab at this,  not only ( probably ) does the open driver
NOT support that one in older kernels ( binary blobs etc etc ).   I wonder
if something internal in the Kernel is needed also ( dependency )  for the
Nvidia driver should you go that route.

Regards
