I have closed the tabs that related to installing the drivers from the ELRepo repositories
if you use firefox, you can open last session's open pages.. and, of course, you have the history
and also closed the SSH connection to the server, so am unable to report back on the commands I attempted to use.
reconnect and
history
will tell you what you did
Looks as though I have no option but to follow idp_qbn's advice and go server only mode until drivers eventually become available.
with your approach, you are trying to use a screwdriver to make an hole in the wall.. it could be done, but it's not the right way
follow idp_qbn's advice..
I suspect this will give me other issues but maybe easier to deal with them than these drivers.
sorry but my crystal ball is broken.. what issues do you expect to have? make questions, we will answer
