Bug description:
The DGX Station A10 has various display options. The BMC provides an
emulated device (Aspeed controller), a physical BMC controller (NVIDIA
Quadro T1000 Mobile), and a discrete GPU card with 4 DisplayPort
outputs (A100 SXM4 80GB). See the user guide[*] for a diagram.
In a default Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 ('jammy') install, nothing appears
on the A100 DisplayPort output.
NVIDIA DGX OS - a derivative of Ubuntu - works around this by
installing a service that generates an xorg config file dynamically
based on the "OnBrd/Ext VGA Select" setting (aka "dmidecode -t 11").
I'll attach samples of those files here. Replacing the default Ubuntu
xorg.conf file with the sample xorg-nvidia.conf file on a default
Ubuntu Desktop install is confirmed to enable output.

I think comment #17 was on the right track. fbcon=map:1 should work in
theory if the Nvidia kernel driver has framebuffer support. Make sure
you're not using nofb or nomodeset which would break it.

We're checking to see if the system behaves the same with NVIDIA's
BaseOS. If it is, we'll probably move on and this can move to Won't Fix.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2033418] Re: Ubuntu desktop does not appear on DGX Station A100 discrete GPU by default
Discussing this internally, it was suggested to use:
fbcon=map:X
With X = 0, I see the same behavior (boot process on the BMC, X on
whatever is set)
And other values for X just blank the boot process on both outputs (BMC
and HDMI).

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2033418] Re: Ubuntu desktop does not appear on DGX Station A100 discrete GPU by default
The data in comment #1 shows only two "VGA" controllers that could be
used:
46:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ASPEED Technology, Inc. ASPEED
Graphics Family [1a03:2000] (rev 41) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
c1:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation TU117GLM [Quadro
T1000 Mobile] [10de:1fb0] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) (this is
"PCI:193:0:0")
So we want to tell the kernel to boot without PCI device "46:00.0" or
else it will likely only use ASPEED as the boot VGA. I can't find a
quick answer right now but maybe by assigning this bug to the kernel
team someone will...

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2033418] Re: Ubuntu desktop does not appear on DGX Station A100 discrete GPU by default
It sounds like the main problem therefore is the Nvidia X driver. It's
refusing to light up HDMI without a custom config explicitly telling it
to use "PCI:193:0:0". But this might be Nvidia's intended behaviour so I
recommend checking the docs for solutions first:
https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/535.86.05/README/index.html
And contacting Nvidia for help second.
P.S. The Nvidia website recommends driver 460 for the A100. Also the
installed driver version sounds like it's from nvidia-graphics-
drivers-535 (desktop), but also there are some nvidia-graphics-
drivers-535-server packages installed? So I wonder if this is just a bad
choice of drivers for the hardware.
