Can't install GeForce GTX 1650 TI on Pop_OS! 21.04

popuser · December 1, 2021, 3:31am

Hello,

I am having a lot of trouble installing my GTX 1650 TI under Pop_OS! 21.04.
I’ve tried everything I could find scattered around this forum and on google as well, but to no avail.

I’ll drop some info about my current system:

GPU only shows AMD ATI Renoir (onboard graphics), missing GeForce GTX 1650 TI.

nvidia-smi:
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn’t communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

lspci | grep VGA:
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Renoir (rev c7)

I’ve tried installing the driver per system76 recommendation,
sudo apt install system76-driver-nvidia
… errors while processing:
system76-io-dkms
system76-driver
system76-acpi-dkms
system76-dkms
nvidia-dkms-470
nvidia-driver-470
system76-driver-nvidia
nvidia-driver-460

and also installing the driver downloaded from Nvidia website,
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-430.09.run

and I get a message stating:
*WARNING: You do not appear to have an NVIDIA GPU supported by the 430.09 NVIDIA Linux graphics driver installed in this system. For further details, please see the appendix SUPPORTED *

      NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIPS in the README available on the Linux driver download page at www.nvidia.com.*

I am desperate trying to find a solution to this, as my discrete graphics card is not working.
I have secure boot disabled under the BIOS.

Can anyone please advise?

Thanks in advance

Sounds like the nvidia gpu isn’t detected at all. In case this is a notebook, please check whether it’s diabled in bios.
Please run nvidia-bug-report.sh as root and attach the resulting nvidia-bug-report.log.gz file to your post.

popuser · December 1, 2021, 12:21pm

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.

Please find attached the request file with the report.

By the way, I forgot to mention two things. This is a dual boot machine, with windows 10 on the other side, and the graphic card works under windows, every time. The other thing is that the graphic card worked in the past under linux. I could switch between Integrated graphics, Intel graphics, Hybrid graphics or Compute graphics. I cannot find anything in the BIOS that enables or disables the graphic card.

Can you advise further?

Looks like some package installed a broken udev rule which removes the gpu from the bus.
Please post the output of
grep 10de /lib/udev/rules.d/*

Furthermore, it seems the blacklist files for nvidiafb and nouveau are gone. Please create
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau-nvidiafb.conf

blacklist nouveau
blacklist nvidiafb

and run
sudo update-initramfs -u
afterwards.

Here is the output of grep:

Created file blacklist-nouveau-nvidiafb.conf and added both lines.

The rules are fine. Since the gpu is only removed 6s after boot

[ 6.037578] pci 0000:01:00.0: Removing from iommu group 9
[ 6.037962] pci 0000:01:00.1: Removing from iommu group 9

This must be some service started by systemd. Do you have something like supergfxd or the like installed?

Nothing suspicious there. Please check journalctl -b0 if there’s some corresponding message when the gpu gets removed.

popuser · December 2, 2021, 12:24pm

OK. The output is kind of confusing… at least to me.

I found lines like:

So I guess something is failing, but I don’t know exactly what, because in a way I am also not sure what to look for in this output. Could you guys please help me further?

I’ll leave the full output in a file here, just in case.

Generix,
I would like to thank you for your time and patience in helping me solving this issue. You already helped me a lot.
I’ve just opened an issue where you suggested and I hope they eventually give me a solution for this problem.

If I ever find out the solution, I will also post it here for future readers.

Thanks once again.
Kind regards,
Pedro

How have you solved your issue? I have the same output & problems, but I don`t know how to solve it

popuser · December 6, 2023, 8:26am

I did, but the problem keeps coming back.
Have a look here:

When I click any of the options (Hybrid Graphics, NVIDIA Graphics, Compute... etc) I get a message popup (for 30 seconds) staying that the change is being made, and then I am asked to reboot and switch. After reboot, Integrated Graphics is the only option selected. **Steps to reproduce (if you know):** I login to desktop, chose Hybrid graphics, reboot, but after reboot and login again to desktop, I see integrated graphics is selected again. **Expected behavior:** I login to desktop, chose hybrid graphics, reboot, and after reboot and login I see Hybrid Graphics selected. **Other Notes:** I've noticed this behaviour after apt upgrade from Pop_OS! 19 (or so I think) because this was working when I first installed Pop_OS!. Its a dual boot machine, and on WIndows 10 side, everything is working. So its not a graphics card issue. Graphic card is: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1650 TI Laptop: HP Pavilion Gaming 15S-ec1010np If I run lspci | grep -i VGA right before boot, I get: 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Renoir (rev c7) but if first, I run system76-power graphics power on and then lspci | grep -i VGA i get 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU117M [GeForce GTX 1650 Ti Mobile] (rev a1) 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Renoir (rev c7) This shows that system76-power is disabling my discrete graphics card at boot. Why? Thanks. Regards, Pedro
