Hi,

which nvidia graphics card type you use with OpenIndiana?

Currently we ship the version 340 of nvidia Solaris driver, which supports following cards: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/135163/en-us. However, newer devices are not supported in this driver version.

I was wondering if users are fine with a newer version like 390? It adds new cards but drops old ones. List of supported cards in this version: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/149144/en-us.

Anyone knows might be affected? (I don't have a plan, just wondering.)

You can get the type of graphics card with `nvidia-settings` or in /var/log/Xorg.0.log file.

The other, proper solution is to have a way to switch between driver versions but work on this stalled some time ago.

Thanks,
Michal

Hi Michal,

from /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[1132498.875] (II) NVIDIA(0): NVIDIA GPU GeForce GT 730 (GK208) at PCI:1:0:0 (GPU-0)
[1132498.875] (--) NVIDIA(0): Memory: 4194304 kBytes

and using driver

[1132432.343] (II) NVIDIA dlloader X Driver 396.24 Thu Apr 26 00:11:43 PDT 2018


(Installed upon instructions from wiki - had impression that 340 driver was not using all features. Unfortunately, something went wrong with pulseaudio after that, although I am not sure if that is related at all - see https://www.illumos.org/issues/11678)

Best regards.
