Failed to find module nvidia-uvm

Hi, I’ve been using Arch for a couple of years but never really dove in too much. I recently acquired an NVIDIA Tesla K40m that I’m now trying to use for Hashcat, ffmpeg (in Jellyfin), among other things.

Nvidia-470xx-utils

and

opencl-nvidia-470xx

are installed.

output of

uname -r

:

Linux [hostname] 6.1.38-2-lts #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat, 15 Jul 2023 19:51:05 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Only reference to the card in the output of

journalctl -b -0

is:

Jul 19 11:58:49 [hostname] systemd-modules-load[372]: Failed to find module ‘nvidia-uvm’

Output of

lspci -nnk

(with irrelevant output omitted):

01:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation GK110BGL [Tesla K40m] [10de:1023] (rev a1)
        Subsystem: NVIDIA Corporation 12GB Computational Accelerator [10de:097e]
        Kernel modules: nouveau

(I have blacklisted nouveau, but `mesa` is strangely required by `nvidia-470xx-utils` and also most if not all of the server applications I have running on the system)

Re: Failed to find module nvidia-uvm

You primarily need nvidia-470xx-dkms and linux-lts-headers for these to go anywhere from a kernel perspective.

The kernel module nouveau doesn't come from mesa , but from ..... your kernel.
Also blacklisting kernel module A only prevents the kernel autoloading it, but doesn't stop it from loading if specifically requested by module B.

Welcome to archlinux forums.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
