Problem with legacy GPU drivers

GREAT-DNG · 2022-08-22 03:23:40

Hi.

I switched from Manjaro to Arch and tried to run the Godot engine, but it hangs, showing a splash screen.
I wrote to Linux.org.ru and they already have some information about the issue. It turned out that the problem was with the drivers. The question is what drivers did Manjaro put in, since there was no problem on it or is there a way to put supported drivers?

Outputs:

Tesla… the 340xx might run into issues w/ recent X11 servers, but is the only nvidia driver that supports your chip (leaving nouveau aside)
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-340xx-dkms

Because of the dmesg:

pacman -Ql libva

GREAT-DNG · 2022-08-22 12:54:55

nvidia-340xx-dkms needs to be rolled back to an older version?

seth · 2022-08-22 13:00:15

No.
The series is no longer maintained by nvidia and officially not ABI compatible with xorg 1.21 - you'd have to roll back xorg-xserver and with that pretty much the entire distribution.
Forget about that. If you want to try nvidia-340xx-dkms, just be aware that the X11 server might randomly crash.

It looks like I couldn't master arch . I'll go back to Manjaro, it worked there...

seth · 2022-08-22 13:24:14

Sorry,

pacman -Qs libva

My brain was apparently next door…

Manjaro will have the same problems around 340xx - only an *older* Manjaro would not have had them.

There's btw. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=30 where you can ask in Russian.

Edit: in doubt you're just missing https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x8 … sa-driver/
