Nvidia-related Messages In /var/log/messages
Just discovered these messages in /var/log/messages, while looking at the USB problem I just posted about, separately.
Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 331.67, but Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: this kernel module has the version 331.49. Please Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: components have the same version. Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: nvidia_frontend_ioctl: minor 255, module->ioctl failed, error -22
Apr 29 19:22:30 fcshome kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 331.67, but Apr 29 19:22:30 fcshome kernel: NVRM: this kernel module has the version 331.49. Please Apr 29 19:22:30 fcshome kernel: NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver
but I cannot find anything relating to Nvidia that has a 331.49 version number.
“yum list installed | grep 331.49” returns no hits
“yum list installed | grep 331.[0-9]” returns ONLY hits on 331.67.
“find 331” finds lots of things, but none of them is 331.49.
So, I’d be appreciative if someone could shine a light on this for me.
thanks!

You updated the NVIDIA driver/kernel module while the old one was loaded into the kernel.
As root:
# telinit 3
# rmmod nvidia
# telinit 5
– Thomas
That could well be the problem,… I tend to lose track of such things sometimes.
for some reason telinit 3 went bonkers so I ended up doing a reboot which should (and seems to have) also solve(d) the problem.
Thanks!
