Re: Fwd: Fwd: module nvidia not found / amd64 jessie

Thanks.

It seems that, although suspected, I missed to investigate whether there is
a broken relevant package. It would be useful to users of testing knowing
how to do that.

thanks again

Jessie still has a broken package -3, the issue is supposed to
be fixed in -4 

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=766343

but that didn't migrate due to the freeze...
Something that should be resolved soon (the bug is tagged "important")

However, the command to activate the GPUs does not work because bash does

problem of the terminal rather than of nvidia.

Yes, you are right. Should have told, I use m-a just for checking, if I have 
installed all necessary packages. DKMS will after it work automatically for me 
building the modules.

Hi Hans:
>From years I no more use what you suggest, I rather use the automatic
system of Debian. It has always worked fine at any update/upgrade/restart,
even at pciexpress 3.0, like in my system. Perhaps the testing (jessie)
update/upgrade has introduced a temporary bug. If so, other users will
claim problems. If not, I do not understand what happened. I do not have
another machine with this config.

Hi franceso, 

I am checking the necessary packagaes by module-assistant. It is the easiest 
way.

Try it out. Install package "module-assistant" , start with m-a, and then go 
through the 4 steps (update, prepare etc.) Nice tool, and is helping much.

Good luck

Fwd: module nvidia not found / amd64 jessie

2014-11-13 Thread Francesco Pietra
As all packages seem to be installed, I wonder whether attention should be
paid to the message by the graphical VMD, while detecting the two GTX 680:

CUDA error: invalid device symbol, CUDAClearDevice.cu line 62

Hello:

Following update/upgrade with amd64 jessie, the 2 GTX 680 are seen by the
graphical package VMD, however, "nvidia -smi" does not respond. The GTX are
used in the absence of X-server, for number crunching.

I rerun upgrading at no help.
