Nvidia distrobox integration not working · Issue #61 · ublue-os/baz...

Distrobox with the --nvidia flag is supposed to copy the host's Nvidia drivers into the container. It seems this may be incomplete, as currently this results in a broken installation. This is a...

so... I'm starting to test things related to this and adding to the ticket do you have any suggested packages to install for fedora/ubuntu for simple testing of vulkan/opengl? glx-utils seems like it would work for gl on fedora and mesa-utils for ubuntu

Seems like the issue is only vulkan than since everything worked but vkcube, right? @javvyy

didnt test specific engines but things like steam etc worked fine from earlier testing could go test that again rq steam utilizes my gpu just fine any other tests i could do with games directly off the fedora repos or we

This is so weird... I wonder if it's some weird disparity between generations of cards or something

I updated the issue with my (failed) vulkan test results of course, now i want to test on my hybrid laptop and i did,... same results on laptop with 3050 as on desktop with 1660

these are my specs dont have any other hybrid laptop or desktop to test on atm tho @bsherman is your display' s laptop wired to the dgpu or igpu that could make a difference

suppose the next question is are you missing any of the files from the upstream issue and does adding them resolve the issue?

I have same behavior on desktop and laptop... desktop is wired to nvidia (only gpu) laptop is wired to intel (nvidia is "prime" mode or whatever) i can document more specifics in ticket, but the /etc/vulkan dir is empty on my host, so mapping it as a volume changes nothing in the distrobox instance... adding that volume mount for /usr/lib64/libnvidia-vulkan-producer.so did change the error... and i'm going to test that again in fedora-nvidia as i think the error could have been library related

how do i see the renderer of gl/vk?

Kyle GospoOP•2y ago

if adding the missing stuff works I can work around this with a post-init script 🙂

aaa

❯ DRI_PRIME=1 glxgears
libGL error: glx: failed to create dri3 screen
libGL error: failed to load driver: nouveau
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
33634 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6726.710 FPS

this might be of interest

oh, it works [bsherman@fedora-nvidia ~]$ vkcube Selected GPU 0: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, type: DiscreteGpu [bsherman@fedora-nvidia2 ~]$ vkcube Selected GPU 0: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, type: DiscreteGpu so vulkan works for me when using fedora distrobox, but didn't on bazzite what did i do that made me think vulkan wasn't working before? and this works on my laptop too, from fedora distrobox $ vkcube Selected GPU 1: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU, type: DiscreteGpu and now it works on laptop from bazzite-arch

but not vkgears, this was what i saw earlier and thought it failed

Does nvidia-smi work ok?

bsherman•2y ago

yes

EyeCantCU•2y ago

Odd

bsherman•2y ago

here's my documentation https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issues/61
