[SOLVED]GPU problem again

jojo06 · 2026-03-09 11:27:32

Hi.

There is lag and slowdown even when hovering the mouse. The fan constantly turns on and off at boost speed.

nvtop

No GPU to monitor.

nvidia-smi

NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

You can't mix 580xx and 590 driver packages .

remove those 3 packages. replace them with nvidia-580xx-settings, opencl-nvidia-580xx and libxnvctrl-580xx .

jojo06 · 2026-03-09 23:08:29

cuda and xfce4-sensors-plugin deleted too.

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing opencl-nvidia breaks dependency 'opencl-nvidia' required by cuda
:: removing libxnvctrl breaks dependency 'libxnvctrl' required by xfce4-sensors-plugin

nvidia-580xx-settings, opencl-nvidia-580xx, libxnvctrl-580xx installed and so vulkan-headers.

Going to reboot

EDIT: Same. Since no GPU loaded, CPU is doing all the work.

I thought pacman will update all and also see some message in the forum about it. But it appears not Maybe its changed, idk. Now updating the AUR. Should i try to `sudo dkms autoinstall` after update ?

seth · 2026-03-10 20:34:11

The package update is supposed to trigger dkms, (only) otherwise you'll have to manually build the dkms package.
pacman has *never* updated AUR packages (nor other foreign packages)

jojo06 · 2026-03-11 18:25:57

AUR update took more than 6 hours. I tried to ctrl + c and do it again. I saw some `failed` `abort` messages on there. Should i reboot or cancel the process and/or delete its temporary files then try again ? Or just leave it and give a day if necessary ?

Which file has `yay` logs ? `pacman.log` does not have it.

seth · 2026-03-11 20:46:33

Start by not using yay, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository …

Yay keeps a cache

CACHE DIRECTORY
The cache directory is $XDG_CACHE_HOME/yay/. If $XDG_CACHE_HOME is unset, the cache directory will fall back to $HOME/.cache/yay.

If there're any logs besides the stdout/stderr they'll likely be there.

jojo06 · 2026-03-11 21:51:28

Okay. Manual PKGBUILD safer than yay ? Whats the difference between doing it manual ?

You avoid yay bugs and actually understand what's going on and what stage actually fails.

Doesn't look like there's a log file so you'll have to provide the yay stdout.

Fwwi, building gcc14 might take a moment and possibly run you OOM.

Sorry, I didnt understand this.

"… |& tee -a output.txt" and several TEs allow you to copy the scrollbuffer into the clipboard

Sorry, I didnt understand this.

Nobody knows what stalled things was rebuilding the nvidia driver, if yay was updating/rebuilding gcc14 (exists in your cache) that will simply be resource intense.

clutter-gtk is probably required for https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cheese ?
Similar errors point to conda/pip installations getting in the way.

It's however entirely not related to the problem at hand (nvidia drivers) so

Which package is causing the problem? I can delete it—maybe just temporarily. How can I update AUR repo without using `yay -Syu` ?

loqs · 2026-03-13 16:55:07

You can not tell from yay's output which package failed? Arch User Repository Installing and upgrading packages covers using AUR without a helper.
