Old nVidia Drivers and new hardware, is there a solution? [Solved]
Old nVidia Drivers and new hardware, is there a solution?
Hi,
Well as documented elsewhere I updated my Video card to a recent nVidia one and even though the one I installed is 'supported' it's not supported very well with the rather old existing nVidia drivers. I'm getting some visual glitching and weird things like log out not working and Video-centric software is crashing regularly. I'm apparently also needing a newer version of CUDA. I haven't owned nVidia hardware for many years and I remember in my early Debian days I used SGFXI but it doesn't work on systems set up for sudo, only with a separate Root account and it seems like an extreme leap to go outside of APT..
I'm guessing there is no middle ground, is there any recourse for those who need nVidia drivers newer that Debian Bookworm and Trixie provide?
*mini-rant: People can slag Windows all they want and there are occasional bad hardware drivers on every OS but by and large this stuff just works and works to the top degree of functionality, although Linux has made huge leaps and bounds there is still a lot of half-assery to be reckoned with for multimedia setups.

Code: Select all
sudo ddm-mx -N -i nvidia
you can use

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.

I opted for the ddm development option and it said it installed the 565 driver but on boot QSI says I'm running on Nouveau and Davinci Resolve can't find an OpenGL GPU... Like I said I've been blissfully away from nVidia for many years, is this a Nouveau blacklist thing? I had assumed since the original install of the 535 Driver seemed to look after Nouveau that the develoment Driver would too, is that not the case?

I would have thought so. maybe nvidia changed something. you can attached a ddm.log file and I'll see if anything jumps out at me.AVLinux wrote: Fri Nov 15, 2024 11:06 pmHi, and thanks for the help!dolphin_oracle wrote: Fri Nov 15, 2024 6:44 pmwill pull from the nvidia developer repo.Code: Select all

Re: Old nVidia Drivers and new hardware, is there a solution?
Here's the log, it's quite large from 2 installs and was too big to post on the forum:
https://bandshed.net/files/ddm.log
Hmmm, I do see in the log where it said something about the card being unsupported by the original Driver, I missed that somehow but it went ahead and installed the 535 Driver. It must be supported by the 565 Linux development Driver because I'm using the 566 "Studio" Driver on Windows. I hope I can keep the 565 Driver and a manual blacklist tweak is all that is needed but I'll wait to see what you say..

Re: Old nVidia Drivers and new hardware, is there a solution?
@dolphin_oracle OK, some progress...
It turns out the system was a mess of both new and old drivers so I ran ddm to revert to Nouveau... success
The re-ran ddm to install the development 565 Drivers... partial success... I had to manually blacklist Nouveau just like the good old days
Rebooted into the nVidia 565 Driver...success
Launched Davinci Resolve and it wants 'nvidia-opencl-icd' which is tied to the Debian 535 Driver so won't install without me downgrading the driver *pause to scream into pillow...
How do I get a matching nvidia-opencl-icd (or updated CUDA 12) to install..?

Re: Old nVidia Drivers and new hardware, is there a solution?
CUDA 12.6 is in the Nvidia dev repo - https://developer.download.nvidia.com/c ... 12/x86_64/
Not sure if that will help with the opencl issue though.
Instruction to add that repo and import key are here - https://linuxcapable.com/install-nvidia ... on-debian/ . Whether that's a good idea or not, I can't say. @dolphin_oracle advice needed.

As far as I understand opencl is only needed in the case that CUDA 12+ is not available but I will wait on D_O's opinion..

so ddm-mx's goal is to try to keep people from breaking their system, and it disables the developer repo when its done installing the graphics drivers.sunrat wrote: Sat Nov 16, 2024 6:21 pm CUDA 12.6 is in the Nvidia dev repo - https://developer.download.nvidia.com/c ... 12/x86_64/

you'll need to enable it to get the support library you want.
Code: Select all
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/debian12/x86_64/cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb

Re: Old nVidia Drivers and new hardware, is there a solution?
Hmmm I must have missed a step somewhere, I have the cuda keyring installed and the Repo enabled but I only see the MX Packages as install candidates in MXPI after apt updating.. It seems like the actual developer Driver Repo is missing, but the CUDA one is there..?dolphin_oracle wrote: Sat Nov 16, 2024 6:41 pmso ddm-mx's goal is to try to keep people from breaking their system, and it disables the developer repo when its done installing the graphics drivers.sunrat wrote: Sat Nov 16, 2024 6:21 pm CUDA 12.6 is in the Nvidia dev repo - https://developer.download.nvidia.com/c ... 12/x86_64/

after than, the nvidia developer repo will be enabled just like any other repo, and you can install what you want.Code: Select all

This is what is in sources.list.d (aside from regular Debian and MX Stuff)
