Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
The wiki does not even include Debian 10. [To this date Sept 7, 2019]
AND IT SAYS NOTHING ABOUT NVIDIA 304 CAN'T WORK WITH DEBIAN 10.
And stuttering Nouveau (this date) isn't even working either.
DO NOT release tier upgrade to Debian 10 buster on your main systems where Nvidia 304 is desired.

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
Let me be clear:
Debian (10) just allowed numerous computers with legacy nvidia GPU's to fail BEFORE their time.
Because Nvidia stopped support and refuses to go open.
However; so what? Why HELP Nvidia obsolete them? Why should we also stop supporting GPU's that are working?
Either work with the last proprietary driver or fix open Nouveau. Either way you can't cut stuff off just because Nvidia does.
AND ALSO FAIL TO WARN PEOPLE.
If it's all important that xorg move away (not held back) from nvidia "legacy" cards then they also need a fork that doesn't.
And the new Wayland tests, ideas, and future is great; but so far limits what apps you can use with it. So we are still xorg or die until then.
Are we putting the cart before the horse (and blaming the BS in the road)?

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
I remember reading somewhere (not in this forum) that 3.04 was not going to be supported in buster (might have been in the installer since although I was running 390 I sill had 304 installed). I had an old Nvidia card that ran on legacy-304.xx in Jessie. It also ran on legacy 340.xx on stretch and legacy-390.xx in buster. Have you tried the legacy-390.xx or one of the other legacy drivers with your card in buster?neodeb wrote:The wiki does not even include Debian 10. [To this date Sept 7, 2019]

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
For a desktop, how much will it cost to get a video card that will work with the drivers in Buster and is much better than that ancient one? It can't be that much...

I got Nouveau working link above. But then nouveau was far to unstable. More at link above.
If Nouveau works well over time then great. It just hasn't been even as good; historically. Tested as poor.

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
Hi
Several Installs of Debian 10, latter I still get errors, Ive also been lapses in not replying to posts sorry.
In dmesg I get the following.
This is a desktop machine specifically a gaming tower, with a Nvida GTX 1070 Graphics card as previously stated.
As I write this post IT IS displaying the graphics on screen correctly, I have plaid windows games (previously installations)ago.
I would like to nail this red errors in
Contained with in the code block to the Debian wiki https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware I have scanned this only I would need further guidance,
on exactly what to stick where so that the installer(Debian 10) finds the missing firmware.
Furthur options is downloading from Nvida the driver(linux) direct and installing that.

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
Hello. Your card is pretty new. Released 3 years ago. So it will work great with new driver (418.74-1) as well. How do I install these drivers? It is very simple. Add contrib and non-free to yourNvidia Gtx 1070
Code: Select all
/etc/apt/sources.list
Then install the this script:
Code: Select all
nvidia-detect
Run it (as normal user).
Here example output:
Code: Select all
$ nvidia-detect
Detected NVIDIA GPUs:
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 430] [10de:0de1] (rev a1)
Your card is supported by the default drivers.
It is recommended to install the
nvidia-driver
package.
Code: Select all
# apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's/[^-]*-[^-]*-//')
Code: Select all
nvidia-driver
Code: Select all
# apt-get update
# apt-get install nvidia-driver
This method i used on all my machines.

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
Aren't those pretty much the same instructions as in the Debian wiki?

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10
There is nothing written about the installation of Nvidia drivers in Debian 10. I mean on the official Debian wiki. Therefore, I decided to share my experience. I understand that this method is no different from the one used in Debian 9, but I think it will make life easier for a newbie ...stevepusser wrote:Aren't those pretty much the same instructions as in the Debian wiki?

Re: Nvidia drivers install Debian 10 :Solved
Hello again. Sorry for my bad English. These lines appear because you are missing the firmware for nvidia.Data007 wrote:Well thats that it works good not done a demsg
From the user’s point of view, a firmware is just some data that is needed by some piece of hardware in order to function properly. The driver for that hardware typically loads the firmware on the device as part of its initialization.
In the Linux kernel, the drivers are all using a standardized interface (request_firmware) to retrieve the firmware before sending it to the device. Thanks to this standardization, it’s possible to either embed the firmware in the kernel or to have it request the firmware from user-space when needed.
So, using a quick search I found this:
Code: Select all
apt search nvidia/gp104/gr/sw_nonctx.bin
Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
firmware-misc-nonfree/stable,now 20190114-2
Binary firmware for various drivers in the Linux kernel
Code: Select all
firmware-misc-nonfree
Code: Select all
firmware-linux-nonfree
Code: Select all

Don't spread this rubbish.
