XFCE: can I load the nvidia-drm.ko kernel module before the X server is started?

#1 Post by bitrat »

Hi,

this is related to my other topic here: ACPI: no desktop after sleep with nvidia driver installed?

The following comment appears in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf
# This xorg.conf.d configuration snippet configures the X server to
# automatically load the nvidia X driver when it detects a device driven by the
# nvidia-drm.ko kernel module. Please note that this only works on Linux kernels
# version 3.9 or higher with CONFIG_DRM enabled, and only if the nvidia-drm.ko
# kernel module is loaded before the X server is started.
How can I check or ensure this. In the Xorg log (see below) it looks like the nouveau module might be loaded when X starts ([ 2624.681]..[ 2624.754]).

Is that the case? Can I force the nvidia module to load first?

With the desktop visible:

Re: XFCE: can I load the nvidia-drm.ko kernel module before the X server is started?

#2 Post by Aki »

Hello,

I assume that the nvidia-drm.ko kernel module is already loaded before the X server is started with the nvidia proprietary kernel module. Why do you think it is not?

I just see a bunch of log lines related to loading and unloading nouveau, but I see it's the shared library, not the km.

I think I'll look into ACPI before I explore this any further! I'll mark it as solved in a day or two.

Thanks! :)
