 Posted: Mon Sep 16, 2024 11:14 am Post subject: [SOLVED] Trouble to get nvidia-driver working after updating |
 |
|
Hello,
TL;DR: Zen on the unofficial discord server says and assure me that it was a bug, see my answers below.
Since months I'm facing a problem on two desktop. Each time the x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers is updated, the next reboot fails to make it works. Seems I have, if my memory is good, to use this command:
| Code: | | emerge --ask @module-rebuild |
Then, reboot and it works.
I can use GUI and my desktop, but at some points you realize stuff are wrong:
- Games fail to launch
- Desktop effect can be slow (btw)
- Some software build with grahics acceleration seems to suffer, as my firefox, had to install firefox-bin until I realize it was probably linked. Firefox just display what's behind the window and isn't usable, even after resizing for example. As you can see here.
- Plasma try to tell me something, each time on these desktop the problem appear, the loading icon is spinning like really fast, which is not the case when everything is good.
- Plasma says I use llvmpipe as graphical processor.
I tried to apply the way to make it automatic, but I should have missed something because as said above, it doesn't works.
Example on the main desktop (let's keep it simple), using a 3060Ti with this settings:
| Code: | Portage 3.0.65 (python 3.12.6-final-0, default/linux/amd64/23.0/hardened/systemd, gcc-13, glibc-2.39-r6, 6.6.47-gentoo-dist-hardened x86_64)

I use the last stable dist-kernel :
| Code: | | Linux Mephistopheles 6.6.47-gentoo-dist-hardened #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Sep 10 12:55:05 CEST 2024 x86_64 AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux |
| Code: | # eselect kernel list
Available kernel symlink targets:
[1] linux-6.6.47-gentoo-dist-hardened * |
I have for the VIDEO_CARDS:
| Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" |
For the x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers I have these sets of flags:
equery u "nvidia-drivers":
| Code: |
[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]
[ : I - package is installed with flag ]
[ Colors : set, unset ]
* Found these USE flags for x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-550.107.02-r1:
U I
+ + X : Add support for X11
+ + abi_x86_32 : 32-bit (x86) libraries
+ + dist-kernel : Enable subslot rebuilds on Distribution Kernel upgrades
- - kernel-open : Use the open source variant of the drivers (Turing/Ampere+ GPUs only, aka GTX 1650+ --
recommended with >=560.xx drivers if usable)
+ + modules : Build the kernel modules
+ + modules-compress : Install compressed kernel modules (if kernel config enables module compression)
+ + modules-sign : Cryptographically sign installed kernel modules (requires CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y in the kernel)
- - persistenced : Install the persistence daemon for keeping devices state when unused (e.g. for headless)
- - powerd : Install the NVIDIA dynamic boost support daemon (only useful with specific laptops, ignore if
unsure)
+ + static-libs : Install the XNVCtrl static library for accessing sensors and other features
+ + strip : Allow symbol stripping to be performed by the ebuild for special files
+ + tools : Install additional tools such as nvidia-settings
+ + wayland : Enable dev-libs/wayland backend
|
With this as settings in packages.use:
| Code: | # cat /etc/portage/package.use/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers X dist-kernel tools
|
Current version of the x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers package:
| Code: | | [IP-] [ ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-550.107.02-r1:0/550 |
I added dist-kernel and dbus USE flags in the USE variables too. So far as I understood (which seems wrong), it was enough to rebuild each time it's necessary the module to the kernel.
If I grep for nvidia in dmesg I get:

Trying to see if any nvidia module was loaded, and load it if not:
| Code: | Mephistopheles ~ # lsmod | grep nvidia
Mephistopheles ~ # modprobe nvidia
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
|
So I guess it start to smell like bad fish ?
Current profile:
| Code: | | default/linux/amd64/23.0/hardened/systemd |
(Yes, I do not use a plasma/desktop with a… desktop, plus plasma. I mixed up the missing use flag with this current profile, it works, but it was recommanded to me to use another way such as creating my own profile, I don't think it's related but I prefer to say it).
This problem, IIRC, appears with or without a kernel update. 100% sure scenario is like this morning, only needing to update nvidia-driver.
After reading from top to bottom and bottom to top the nvidia-drivers's page from the wiki, I'm not quite sure of what direction I should go.
My guess are these ones:
- I messed up the kernel module signing, I can't remember doing these while installing.
- Maybe my grub isn't regenerated properly and boot up to a kernel without that new module ? Until, somehow, rebuilding the module make it works (but I guess this is wrong).
Heck, even the page about distribution kernel says this:
| Code: | | If using out-of-source kernel modules like x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers or sys-fs/zfs, add USE="dist-kernel" to /etc/portage/make.conf for automatic rebuilds |
Which is here…
What do I miss to make it 100% automatic, thus, having to rebuild stuff my self and reboot ?

Sadly, rebuilding the modules seems not to have been enough.
I think I simply forget how I was fixing that on my system :(.
Will try to figures out how it was solved before, report here as well (that would help me for sure if I don't have a fix for next weeks).

For now I miss the details and can't be more precise, will do later today because I have to leave the computer, but quickly:
I needed to create the following dir:
| Code: | | mkdir /etc/dracut.conf.d |
Inside, I created a nouveau.conf file.
Inside this file, I added:
| Code: | | omit_drivers+=nouveau |
(Something I might have forgot to tell, yes nvidia module was not listed by lsmod, while nouveau was !).
Then reconfiguring the kernel (no rebuild necessary):
| Code: | | emerge --config sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel |
And after a reboot, works like a charm.
Will try to provides more details on it today.

A workaround was also added to nvidia-drivers, slightly different solution but it should also prevent nouveau from loading the next time it's emerged and initramfs is rebuilt after.
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=dacc7d5a54fa
Glad to hear it's resolved for you anyhow, was worried something worse was going on when it said "no such device", but it was just nouveau which I tend to not suspect much lately due to the default blacklisting.  |
