Title: SOLVED: Kernel 5.16.3-1 -- boots but no GUI for Nvidia
Post by: dibl on 2022/01/27, 21:53:15: I have upgraded only two systems here -- both have Nvidia graphics. Both systems boot to tty1 and there it ends. Among the boot messages flying by, I saw "Failed to start nvidia persistence daemon".

Here is one of the systems:
Code: [Select]
System: Kernel: 5.15.16-1-siduction-amd64 x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.23.5 Distro: siduction 18.3.0 Patience - kde - (201805132121) Machine: Type: Desktop Mobo: ASUSTeK model: ROG STRIX X299-E GAMING v: Rev 1.xx serial: <superuser required> UEFI: American Megatrends v: 1401 date: 05/21/2018 CPU: Info: quad core model: Intel Core i7-7740X bits: 64 type: MT MCP cache: L2: 1024 KiB Speed (MHz): avg: 3453 min/max: 800/4500 cores: 1: 3212 2: 3883 3: 3402 4: 1957 5: 3735 6: 2982 7: 4308 8: 4146 Graphics: Device-1: NVIDIA GP106 [GeForce GTX 1060 6GB] driver: nvidia v: 495.44 Device-2: Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 type: USB driver: snd-usb-audio,uvcvideo Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.14 driver: loaded: nvidia resolution: 1: 1920x1200~60Hz 2: 1920x1080~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB/PCIe/SSE2 v: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 495.44

Back to kernel 5.15.16-1 and it's all good.

This is just to alert the users -- I will troubleshoot later.

This is older HW not supported by nvidia 495.46-1 (as far as I understand it).

Post by: dibl on 2022/01/28, 10:38:41: Got it -- thank you. Yes, the Nvidia driver from siduction/extra experimental is the solution for my hardware.

Code: [Select]

Thank you very much for the great work!

Post by: charlyheinz on 2022/01/28, 15:25:23: Hallo Dibl

I would like to install the Nvidia- driver from experimental but I don't know how to. I've tried to put the experimental source into my extra list but actually I don't know how. Can you give me a hand on this?

What I've tried so far:

deb https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/siduction/extra/dists/ experimental main contrib none-free

Thank you

Hallo towo
Kannst du mir bei der Installation des experimentellen Nvidia- Treibers 510.39.01-0~siduction.1 auf die Sprünge helfen. Siehe dem vorherigen Post habe ich versucht die source.list entsprechend anzupassen. Bei dem Thema stehe ich mal wieder auf dem Schlauch.
Herzlichen Dank

Post by: edlin on 2022/01/29, 09:46:10: Auf meiner vergleichsweise noch jungen Hardware ;) läuft der Kernel 5.16.3-2-siduction-amd64 x86_64 bis jetzt problemlos, während der 5.16.3-1er reproduzierbar eine schwarze Wand produziert.
Also auch für mich gelöst. Falls ich morgen Zeit habe, schaue ich mir mal die Logs an.

Habe den Kernel 5.16.3-1 deinstalliert und danach nochmal neu installiert.
Neu gebootet und ... läuft. War also blanker Zufall, dass sich das mit dem Nvidia-Problem zeitlich deckte.

Schönes WE, edlin

Hi ...

Ich hatte vorgestern ein apt dist-upgrade gemacht und danach massive Probleme mit dem nvidia-driver (unerfüllte Abhängigkeiten ... Pakete ggf. noch nicht freigegeben) ... die Hardware-Beschleunigung war nicht mehr aktiv.

Dein Tip, die Umstellung auf "experimental" mit der Einfügung von ...

Code: [Select]
deb https://packages.siduction.org/extra experimental main contrib non-free
... in die /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list und einem anschließenden

Code: [Select]
apt update && apt -t experimental install nvidia-driver
... aus dem Post von "charlyheinz" führte auch bei mir zum Erfolg.

Experimental habe ich danach in der debian.list erstmal wieder auskommentiert.

Herzlichen Dank.
