Graph-Composer crashes on startup on a VM

Hi,

I’ve tried to run composer on a virtual machine Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 18.04 and it crashes on startup.

Nvidia RTX 3090 is passed through directly but the graphical desktop runs on a virtual GPU - Proxmox, QXL, (SPICE).

Regular ML frameworks/CUDA and GPU compute works without issues but it seems that displaying things requres the same or phisical GPU? I have similar issue when using DeepStream 6.0.1 where I have to replace nveglglessink with glimagesink to be able to display anything. I suspect some opengl related issues but I can’t put my finger on it.

Is there any way to bypass this problem without running on the bare metal?

$ composer

Done.

You would need to connect a monitor to the nvidia gpu and configure Xorg to run on it. The virtual graphics adapter is only running mesa software gl.

Thank you for the suggestion generix. I’m not sure I want to go this route for 2 reasons: 1) this machine could be remote/in the cloud. 2) I lose native remote desktop integration with SPICE provided by Proxmox and I’ll have to configure custom VNC or something else.

BTW I just tried on another VM - upgraded CUDA to 11.7 and composer from v1 to v2 and composer actually launches! Perhaps this issue was resolved in a new release.

Now it’s less of a problem and I can be looking to upgrade other VMs carefully, minding compatibility with other stuff.
