Nvidia and other problems in HP laptop and Debian 10

#1 Post by stilnovo »

Hi to Everybody,

I've just installed Debian 10 with LXQT Desktop on my quite new HP laptop 15-dw0004nl (Intel i5 and Nvidia Geforce MX110 plus Intel UHD620 integrated video card).

I've solved the problems with the wifi adapter (RTL8821CE), but not with the graphic cards.

I've installed the Nvidia drivers following an official Debian tutorial, but they don't work.

If I do in the terminal nvidia-xconfig, it writes a new configuration file but when I reboot the system the graphic servers doesn't start so I remain without graphical desktop environment.

The command nvidia-settings in the terminal says that 'Nvidia driver is not loaded'.

I've updated kernel to 5.4 and 5.5: the problem is not solved.

During the bootload I've seen an error regarding the loading of kernel modules, with systemctl... command doing a recovery boot mode it says that the problem is the Nvidia driver.

So, now I'm confused:

- how can I see which graphic card is active?

- how can I choose the one I want to be active?

- why 'additional drivers' doesn't work (there is not this option also in software-properties).

Only for reference and hoping this could help: this machine is in triple boot, amongst the others Lubuntu 20.04 works fine (Nvidia-settings works).

Thanks in advance for the help!

stilnovo wrote:nvidia-xconfig
From the package information:
This tool is deprecated. The NVIDIA drivers now automatically integrate with the Xorg Xserver configuration. Creating an xorg.conf is no longer needed for normal setups.

Debian 10 uses kernel 4.19...

You should post the full, verbatim error message rather than a vague description. Check the systemd journal and the dmesg(8) output.

Check the X.Org log (if you're using X) or the systemd journal.
stilnovo wrote:- how can I choose the one I want to be active?
Some machines have options in the firmware ("BIOS") to either permanently enable or disable the discrete GPU.

Otherwise try Bumblebee (with the optirun command) or PRIME.

No idea what this means, sorry.
stilnovo wrote:amongst the others Lubuntu 20.04 works fine
In contrast to *buntu, Debian cannot support the proprietary NVIDIA drivers in the official release because they do not conform to the Free Software Guidelines and your card is probably too new for nouveau.

Why did you buy NVIDIA hardware if you wanted to use Debian? That's just asking for trouble :mrgreen:

Thank you for your reply!

Well, I know nvidia-xconfig is deprecated, but when you are desperate... :D

Also updating the kernel has been a desperate move... I've done it since updating the kernel in Lubuntu has solved several problems in this notebook, specially regarding the wifi adapter (also in this case).

Ok, now the lines quoted from journalctl:

with glxinfo I've discovered I'm using the integrated garphic card (HD Graphics Whiskey Lake 3x8 GT2)

In every desktop environment there is an option to manage eventual additional drivers; also in 'software-properties' (both qt and gtk) there is, usually, this menu. In this case, no...

Well, I've tried Debian 10 on another older notebook (with LXDE), and I was very intrigued... the notebook was a very special offer (499€)!! :D

I really don't have a clue about NVIDIA but IIRC the proprietary blob won't always build with the very latest kernel versions and it looks like the module for the backported kernel is missing in your box.

If you wait a bit then somebody experienced with NVIDIA issues may offer better assistance.

It sounds like it's an Optimus laptop, so you should read that section in the wiki and decide whether to use Bumblebee or Prime to access the Nvidia card. Right now, it's probably using the Intel GPU, which is default.

You could let us know what hardware and driver situation you have at the moment by installing inxi and providing the output of

Is it really that hard to use search engines :?:

Official installation instructions for Debian:
https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee

Since You are a beginner, I would suggest to use the bumblebee-nvidia option, not nouveau - because the nouveau driver may need some additional tweaks to work optimally (re-clocking, setting initial power-save mode, ...)

Well thank you for your support, I really don't understand anything about graphic cards and I didn't know that my notebook had Optimus technology (by the way, I see that the graphic card supports it, on the notebook data sheet there is nothing about).

So, yes: I found the link you provided, but I was not sure. I will immediately give it a try!

I will write a feedback later.

(with Lubuntu 20.04 the Nvidia driver is loaded, Nvidia-settings starts and it permits to me to choose which graphic card will be operative at the next reboot - only to understand something more, I like to learn)

no, Bumblebee doesn't seem to work.

The problem is very similar to the one provided here: https://superuser.com/questions/1484109 ... of-nouveau

When I try to load nvidia-settings:

Code: Select all

ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system
Also the output of inxi is the same I previously posted... :|

nvidia-settings has to started with optirun:

optirun nvidia-settings
Also, check if your user account is added to the bumblebee group, as suggested in the debian wiki.

Well, I've added my account to the bumblebee group (it was already in), I've read and followed all the instructions in the wiki, but:

in 'common issues' I did not find a similar case to mine, unfortunately...

With Bumblebee, nvidia-settings has to be started with

Code: Select all

optirun -b none nvidia-settings -c :8
This assumes you correctly followed the Debian wiki, like I suggested in my first answer, and Bumblebee is working. Since you don't seem to want to look at the umpteen other threads from users here that got it working, and you have inxi installed now, check the output of

Code: Select all

inxi -G
versus

Code: Select all

optirun inxi -G
to see if the nvidia card is doing the 3D rendering with the second command. Like on the laptop I'm using right now:

Code: Select all

$ optirun inxi -G

@stevepusser

Thanks for your support.

Well, I've read a lot of threads (not only in Debian user forums) before to write mine, I've tried a lot of things, but I was not successful: if I can, I prefer not to write here since I like things that go smooth.

I'm a beginner, but I like to learn, so here I am (for sure I've done a lot of mistakes, but I try to follow your suggestions).

All this being said:

I had the same problem with a fresh debian 10 installation.
It is really frustrating!!!

The wiki https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers doesn' t say to install all the required kernels headers:

Code: Select all

apt install linux-headers-4.19.0-10-amd64 linux-headers-4.19.0-10-common
It states to install only the generic (?) headers:

Code: Select all

apt install linux-headers-amd64
But it is not enough, I had to use also:

Code: Select all

apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential
I found this here https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install- ... ster-linux.
But in the section "How to install NVIDIA driver by using the official nvidia.com package step by step instructions", better to use the debian package although it could break the GUI...
(uname -r) is the kernel that you are using.

So maybe is this the problem.

Before it is better to make a backup with timeshift, so you won' t lost the GUI.
I don' t know if the kernels from the backports will work, maybe I will try.

The quick and easy way to install kernel headers for the running kernel and the build toolchain is, as sysadmin:

Code: Select all

apt-get install module-assistant
m-a prepare
MX Linux has an Nvidia driver installer which detects Optimus laptops and sets up Bumblebee for them automatically, and it seems to work more often than not. One secret ingredient may be because we also install virtualgl, which isn't in Debian, and acts as a bridge, though I originally ported it over for MX for its glxspheres(64) benchmark. Serendipity, I guess.

Nice package module-assistant, so you need build-essential.

Not really sure if you or module-assistant were installing build-essential, but "m-a prepare" makes sure it and the headers are installed.

I installed it before with:

Code: Select all

apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential
As I saw in that link, it states though that you do not need it if you install the debian package but that is not true.

MA was checking.

Why can' t apt install it by default with the headers? Maybe with MA.

I give up on this lol, tried different approach but can't make it work, anyway it's not really a problem for me.
