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
Thanks everyone for your input. It's valuable for us to get forward.
Below you can see my findings wrt support of reported cards in the more
recent v390 nvidia driver. Except for three cards reported couple of
years ago in the Wiki (they originally launched a decade ago) all
reported cards are supported in the v390 driver. For Quadro cards I
checked the Solaris driver readme, for GeForce ones I looked into the
Linux driver readme. (Thanks Alan!)
Given that almost all cards in the recent use by OpenIndiana users are
supported in the newer driver and that some of you moved to the newer
version on their own, I am tempted to update the driver to v390.
(Though, there may be other considerations.)
If someone is convinced, that their card is not supported in the v390
driver - contrary to my findings - let me know.
