Can’t capture any process on Fedora 33.

Tried almost everything:

Launching process with Nsight Graphics:

Preparing to launch…
Launch failure: Process creation failure
Launch failed.
But the process starts.

Tried to launch manually with LD_PRELOAD set to libNvda.Graphics.Interception.so
I can see the process in Nsight but can’t select it.

Tried to launch manually with Injector. Process starts but I can’t see it in Nsight.

Tried some old version of Nsight: 2020.3, 2019.6, 2019.3, 2019.2

Disabled SELinux.

Installed the latest drivers from nvidia website.

Tried some random game ( https://warsow.net/ ) just to make sure it’s not app-dependent, but still failed.

My GPU is GeForce GTX 1050 (on laptop)
Latest Nsight 2020.6
Latest drivers 455.45.01
Fedora 33

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback on Nsight Graphics support for Fedora 33. I’m discussing with the engineering team and will get back to you on your question.

More than a year later… I am on Fedora 35, and I am having the same issue (still).

I also had to rm the provided libcrypto* files so I can start it at all (which worked). But when I want to start a process via NVIDIA nsight Graphics, it indeed starts but still says: “Launch failure: Process creation failure”.

Even if I try older versions of nsight, no luck.

What can I do?

Launching process from nsight fails for me too on any system.
As workaround you can attach to a running process. It works for me.

Launch your process with:
NV_TPS_LAUNCH_TOKEN="Frame Debugger" LD_PRELOAD=YOUR_NSIGHT_PATH/target/linux-desktop-nomad-x64/libNomad.Injection.so ./your_app_executable

Then launch nsight and attach it to a process.

Hello Folks,

Thank you for your feedback on Nsight Graphics and I am sorry you are running into issues when using the Fedora OS. Please be aware that we currently don’t have support for the Fedora OS Linux distribution. Please see the following website for which OS versions that are supported by Nsight Graphics https://developer.nvidia.com/nsight-graphics-requirements.
