AlmaLinux 9 First Boot Problem
Hey there, I have installed AlmaLinux 9 on my workstation. I know that I should wait until x.2 minor but if anyone wonn't test since first releases no bugs will be discovered.
First problem: I'm not able to install nvidia driver (from nvidia.com) using dkms. I tried the latest driver and the previous one running under 8.6. Actually I'm running nouveau driver. I got this error:
"DKMS make.log for nvidia-510.54 for kernel 5.14.0-70.13.1.el9_0.x86_64 (x86_64) Fri May 27 17:30:08 CEST 2022 make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/kernels/5.14.0-70.13.1.el9_0.x86_64'

Anyone encountered this issue and solved? Running gcc --version I get 11.2.1. How could the kernel be compiled with a newer gcc version? it was build running CentOS Stream? I don't know. I checked for update but there are not available upgrade.
Second issue is related to libvirt. All my VMs were using spice and QXL but EL9 deprecates spice and QXL. So to solve the problem I did imported all my old VMs. No problem here just more work. I noticed that /etc/sysconfig/ files libvirtd and libvirt-guests are not more available. I always used them to config "start on boot" shutdown parallel vms or shutdown timeout. Where I can set this option in EL9?
I don't know if the following is an issue, but running dnf module list I can't get appstream (it is empty). I think it is normal because EL9 is a young release but I excpected to see at least the default release with el9.0.
Thank you in advance.
To AlmaLinux Team: great job!
As you noted, the kernel should have been built with gcc 11.2.1. Alma devs might rebuild it using the right version of gcc, or wait until the next update to the kernel.
In the meantime, you may be able to use a workaround, that is, to run nvidia's installer with --no-cc-version-check.

Try RPM Fusion. https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration
They seem to have drivers. http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/9/x86_64/k/
Hi Alessandro,
I, too, am "taking the plunge" early.

I figured it best to start early and see what happens. So far, it does seem awful buggy. I installed it "minimal" and the installer crashed a few times before it successfully installed.
DO NOT HIT THE ARROW KEYS at the text-based login screen. I've never seen behavior like this; I assume a fix is coming soon.
Also, ZFS on Linux doesn't support it yet, I had to installed Fedora 34 zfs repos to get it working. (EL9 is based on Fedora 34) And because of this, I had to turn off UEFI in the MB and re-install because the compiled ZFS kernel module isn't signed.
(sigh)

I had strange video problems with an old GTX 660 card. Since it's a workstation becoming a server, I pulled it out.

I found one of my VMs doing the same thing. The following command fixed it: virsh autostart VMNAME;

Update: I compiled my own rpm xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin from fedora36 srpm. Not problem for this. It works as intended. Hope that this can help other users.
I'm sorry I selected the wrong email
