Hi Michal
Anything as old as an NVIDIA GeForce 220 so slow imho that not many
people sell these online anymore. Considering that you can get a cheap
current low end graphics card for below 100Euro it is not a stretch to
say that we exchange the 340 driver with 390.
I tend to agree but still this might be a problem for integrated systems
like laptops, where card replacement is not an option. But luckily I
guess nvidia GPU wasn't a thing in this field before Optimus?
What is the newest possible supported card by 340 that is not supported
by 390? If it is older than 4 years then I definetly vote for exchange.
Intuitively, I have no idea as it's a very long time since I had nvidia
GPU (and the list is too long to investigate manually).
If someone knows, I'd appreciate sharing it.
Michal
Greetings

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.
Michal
