Failed to create any GPU devices, including an attempt with compatibility mode. on Linux

I have a problem with Launch by Isaac Sim. It has worked until now, but after the last restart of the machine, I can no longer launch it. Can anyone help me?

do you solve the problem? thanks

Are you using Windows or Linux? What driver version do you have installed?

Reboot the machine to fix this issue.

I faced this issue on Ubuntu 22.04 with Isaac Sim 2023.1.1 suddenly stopping and throwing the above error when I tried to launch the app again. This problem seems to have been reported several times in this forum but without a conclusive solution posted anywhere.

After deciding to reinstall the driver, I ran the nvidia-smi command to identify the driver version only to realize that even that throws an error. Going down that rabbit hole, I found this answer on Stackoverflow that recommended restarting the computer and alas, that worked!

The cause of the issue is still unknown. I wasn’t trying to install anything when the issue came up and there was no update to Omniverse or Isaac Sim before this. But I am still relieved to not have spent hours trying to figure out this problem. NVIDIA might be better off adding this to FAQs somewhere.

Could you tell me the version of Driver?I also encountered this problem,thanks.

My driver version is : 535.183.01. However, as mentioned before, I did not update or reinstall the driver. Rebooting the system solved the issue.

thank you for your answer, my devices are 2*4070, and then I will try this version of drivers.
But it seems that 535 is the lowest version that my devices can accept.Could you tell me your devices?

I experienced a similar problem when running a Python script to launch Isaac Sim. Initially, I suspected the issue was related to a Windows update and tried installing multiple versions of Nvidia’s drivers. However, those efforts, along with other tests, didn’t resolve the problem.

It was finally resolved when I disabled my laptop’s second display adapter (Intel(R) UHD Graphics) in the device manager.

I encountered the same problem. I solved it by reinstalling the graphics card driver. When installing the driver, do not add the -no-opengl-files option.
