Hi,
I have two Nvidia 1080Ti’s connected via SLI in PCIex16 slots however different tools report different BusIDs (see examples below). Despite the kernel listing the cards at IDs 17 and 65, they only work with X if xorg.conf is configured with BusIDs 23 or 101 (the BUSIds as reported by nvidia-xconfig). I don’t understand why the IDs are different when reported by different tools. Please could someone explain?
My system: Asus TOF X299 Mark 2 motherboard, Intel i9 12 core, 64Gb Ram, 2 x EVGA Nvidia 1080Ti’s in PICe x16 slots 1 and 2 (connected by SLI).
I have upgraded the motherboard bios to the latest version, tried linux kernels 4.15.35, 4.15.36 and 4.18.8, and NVIDIA drivers 390.87, 396.54 and 410.48. They all exhibit the same problem. And ideas welcome please!
Luckily, the cards appear to work fine if configured on the higher BUSIDs 23/101!
Many thanks.
