Fail to use 1050Ti on ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and Archlinux

Graphics / Linux Linux
1

I spent an unreasonable amount of time trying to make my graphic card work for Tensorflow computations.
I’ve tried the following procedure on Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 (Desktop and server) and ArchLinux.

  • Install the distrib
  • Update& upgrade
  • install nvidia drivers either from ubuntu standard PPA or from graphics-driver PPA or directly from NVidia website
  • modifiy modesetting and blacklist nouveau
  • Tried all I could find in this forum and elsewere

More precisely, I have the following bugs :

  • Low Graphic mode on ubuntu (Ubuntu Desktop)
  • Automatic fallback to intel with some package (Ubuntu Desktop)
  • "RmInitAdapter failed!" in kernel log and dmesg (Ubuntu & Arch)
  • nvidia-smi output : "no device found" (Ubuntu&Arch)

If anyone could help, that would be much appreciated.

I attached nvidia-bug-report script output, lspci -vvv, syslog and kernlog

nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (547 KB)
Xorg.0.log (23.3 KB)
kern.log (2.24 MB)
lsmod.log (4.74 KB)
lspci.log (14.7 KB)
syslog.log (3.49 MB)

RmInitAdapter failed! (0x31:0xffff:846)

You’re currently using a lowlatency kernel, this sometimes leads to problems with the nvidia driver. If using a standard kernel doesn’t change anything, I’d say the gpu is broken.

Thanks you. I check with then generic kernel but the issue is still there with the same error message.
I then contact asus for repair.

Thanks again
