This is what I'm doing right now. However it performes, as I already said, 
"good enough". Meaning there are some problems. It freezes the system from 
time to time. Well, for now I do not have any choice anyway.

My video card is supported according to NVIDIA. 
Information on official Nvidia website suggests otherwise. Last driver 
version that supports your VGA is 418 release. [1]

Newer driver versions don't mention K2100M on "Supported Products" list.

Debian nvidia-detect advised installation of nvidia-tesla-470-driver 
available in repo. After installing it the system boot stacks 
somewhere in the middle with a weird black screen. No access to TTYs, 
no cursor, no reaction to keyboard. I tried to boot with "nomodeset" 
in GRUB with no result.
Installation of drivers newer than 418 version wouldn't work. The only 
thing they will do is blacklist "nouveau".

Version 418 is available in Buster which is current "oldoldstable". [2]
You can try to backport driver from "oldoldstable" to Bookworm. It might 
be an impossible task due to possible incompatibilities with kernel 6.x

There is also an option to install official driver package from Nvidia.
Or you can install and use Buster.

Bookworm boot stacks with black screen after NVIDIA driver installed.

2023-08-15 Thread Juan R.D. Silva

Hi folks.

Fresh Bookworm install on Dell M4800 Precision with i7-4810MQ CPU @ 
2.80GHz and NVIDIA Quadro K2100M graphic card. No problems install, the 
system works with the default nouveau driver well enough.


My video card is supported according to NVIDIA. Debian nvidia-detect 
advised installation of nvidia-tesla-470-driver available in repo. After 
installing it the system boot stacks somewhere in the middle with a 
weird black screen. No access to TTYs, no cursor, no reaction to 
keyboard. I tried to boot with "nomodeset" in GRUB with no result.


When rebooted in restore mode neither journal -b or journal -xe showed 
any problems. Nvidia module seems to be inserted and loaded. No other 
problems reported. The only way out is to execute 'apt purge "*nvidia*", 
and to reboot. The system then reverts to nouveau driver without any 
problems.


Anyone, please?

Thanks.
