Adding some important additional information.
Recreated the issue on 4 different laptops, all running Ubuntu 20.04, which have the following GPUs:
1. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU
2. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU
3. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU
4. NVIDIA RTX A4500 Laptop GPU
I found another Ubuntu 20.04 on which the issue does not happen (i.e my application works perfectly without sudo
).
The working PC has an older GPU:
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
All of these PCs have the same driver/cuda/OpenGL versions:
Driver Version: 470.182.03
CUDA Version: 11.4
OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 470.182.03
@Robert_Crovella do you have a suggestion to anything else I should compare between the “good” & “bad” PCs?
