[SOLVED] With nvidia modeset enabled system doesn't boot

Hi, please any idea why system doesn't boot til login prompt with the default nvidia setting?
Had to add nvidia-drm.modeset=0 to kernel params.

Only kernel error what I see is

Any idea what might be the issue?

Re: [SOLVED] With nvidia modeset enabled system doesn't boot

The system will likely still boot but your graphical target will fail - or you're just rolling over to the simpledrm device.

Some frequent issue was that the nvidia_drm.fbdev default has changed, try to explicitly set it to "nvidia_drm.fbdev=0"

In any event see whether the mulit-user.target still boots, the journal lines you've posted are uncritical, uvm is for cuda

Re: [SOLVED] With nvidia modeset enabled system doesn't boot

Thanks, changed nvidia_drm.modeset=0 to nvidia_drm.fbdev=0 and also boots. Will leave it.
