[SOLVED] Nvidia driver API mismatch

Nope, that seems fine.

GDK_BACKEND=x11 nvidia-settings

?

diniamo · 2022-09-01 09:31:20

Still segfaults.

Can you run nvidia-settings from an openbox session?
Do you run gdm on xorg?

diniamo · 2022-09-01 15:30:29

I don't know what openbox is, nor do I have it set up.
Yes, I'm pretty sure I do use GDM. (Just to clarify that's the what handles the login process, right?)

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GDM#Use_Xorg_backend

How did you install archlinux? What tutorial did you follow?

diniamo · 2022-09-01 16:15:58

Yes, I do use gdm, I tried disabling the EnableWayland option, but it didnt change anything, also tried to run nvidia-settings from openbox, still segfaults, although I'm not sure if I did it correctly.

seth · 2022-09-01 20:06:45

Neither do we.
Did you install openbox and select it as session in GDM?
Did you try to run nvidia-settings from kitty there as well?

xrandr -q
printenv

diniamo · 2022-09-02 13:46:48

OK yep, I definetly did it correctly this time, it still segfaults.

Appologies, it still crashes from xterm and here are the outputs in respective order:

Because of

EGL_PLATFORM=wayland

…

diniamo · 2022-09-02 16:50:12

That was a problem previously for something else, I removed it and it was fixed.
I have no clue where it's set.
I'm running

sudo rg EGL_PLATFORM=wayland / 2> /dev/null

but I assume it won't do much.

diniamo · 2022-09-02 17:01:28

But you are right, if I set it to anything else, it runs.

seth · 2022-09-02 17:16:10

You can also "unset" it.

PID=$$; while (( $PID != 0 )); do echo $PID; grep -z EGL_PLATFORM /proc/$PID/environ; echo "===="; PID=$(awk '/PPid/ {print $2}' < /proc/$PID/status); done

should help you to isolate the PID that first has this.

❯ PID=$$; while (( $PID != 0 )); do echo $PID; grep -z EGL_PLATFORM /proc/$PID/environ; echo "===="; PID=$(awk '/PPid/ {print $2}' < /proc/$PID/status); done
24874
EGL_PLATFORM=wayland====
24860
EGL_PLATFORM=wayland====
1000
EGL_PLATFORM=wayland====
1
grep: /proc/1/environ: Permission denied
====

and what exactly does this tell me? what should I do with this?

seth · 2022-09-02 17:24:58

The first process w/ this has the PID 1000 - the process might help you to figure how and where you set that.

diniamo · 2022-09-02 17:40:01

it goes as

zsh
kitty
systemd --user
systemd

from top to bottom.

and I couldn't find anything

seth · 2022-09-02 20:23:01

It means that you're exporting the value at a rather global stage - did you check the link in #41?

diniamo · 2022-09-03 08:20:56

Hm yeah, I couldn't find it the first time I checked because I thought /etc/environment was a folder, and I couldn't cd into it so I thought it didn't exist.
Well, it's a file and it had the line, although I never added this manually, does it get parsed from .xprofile or something?

Anyways, thanks for the help, all of you.
