GPU issues with Quadro RTX 3000 on Kubuntu 20.10

Graphics / Linux Linux

Hello,

I run in one of two different scenarios:

  1. “nvidia-smi” returns “No devices were found” and the kernel shows lines like this:

    Jan 17 09:30:14 sokrates kernel: [ 769.434733] NVRM: nv_acpi_dsm_method: invalid argument(s)!
    Jan 17 09:30:18 sokrates kernel: [ 773.448585] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x26:0x65:1290)
    Jan 17 09:30:18 sokrates kernel: [ 773.448629] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: rm_init_adapter failed, device minor number 0
    Jan 17 09:30:18 sokrates kernel: [ 773.567043] NVRM: nv_acpi_dsm_method: invalid argument(s)!
    Jan 17 09:30:22 sokrates kernel: [ 777.579458] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x26:0x65:1290)
    Jan 17 09:30:22 sokrates kernel: [ 777.579501] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: rm_init_adapter failed, device minor number 0

  2. The system freezes and shows some pixel artifacts. The kernel then shows Xid 62 followed by Xid 8 or 43.

lspci | grep VGA

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics (rev 05)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU106GLM [Quadro RTX 3000 Mobile / Max-Q] (rev a1)

Using driver version 460.

Here is the bug report file:
nvidia-bug-report.log.gz (411.1 KB)

I found a similar issue here: Bug Report: 455.45.01 - RTX 3090 incompatible ASRock Rack EPYCD8-2T, Xid 62 error

Looking forward to your advice.

Please check for a bios update first.

Updated to latest firmware released four days ago. nvidia-smi still reports “No devices were found”. Do you need a new bug report archive? What should I try next?

I also noticed that a process for “nvidia-settings --load-config-only” is consuming much CPU and running endlessly.

Although I guess your notebook was already replaced, this looks like the gpu is broken, again. Another issue might be some odd kernel incompatibility but with a low chance. Maybe try if it work with Windows and if not, replace.

Another hardware replacement has resolved this issue. Thank you very much!
