Nvidia drivers not working on GTX 1050

I have a laptop with hybrid Intel+Nvidia graphics.

When I am running opencl code or cuda code, the display card cannot be loaded

nvidia-smi

NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

help me :sob: :sob: :sob:

I see you have PRIME installed, but are you actually using it?

Somehow your nvidia driver is not properly detected. You could try to reinstall by

sudo mhwd --install pci video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime

Also, please post output of

ls -la /etc/X11

Welcome to the forum! :wave:

Please see How to Post and edit your topic title accordingly.

That is the correct MHWD profile for your system, however…

Please post the output of that command as well.

hello everyone. Sorry for the necroposting. But I had exactly the same problem as TS right now.

In general, she did not decide so easily. To summarize, you need to install this hybrid driver. + After installation, you need to set the

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“nvidia_drm.fbdev=1”

parameter in the grub config.

In general, everything turned on fine for me. And even Wayland plows normally.

/etc/default/grub ← grubconfig

then

update-grub

and also, when I tried to install modeset 1, everything also fell after Plymouth. In the new versions of firewood, it seems that fbdev is preferable.

Hi @exord, and welcome!

Your necropost is extremely old, on a topic that wasn’t very active in any case. In fact, the O.P. hasn’t even made any replies to any of the answers given.

Furthermore, I don’t think nvidia-drv.fbdev=1 parameter/setting. I have something quite different for fbdev:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="... nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 ..."

So I don’t think that’s valid, to be honest.

Additionally, this:

also doesn’t make the slightest bit of sense.

I’m sure you know what you mean, but since we’re not mind readers and our crystal ball is acting up, there’s no way for us to understand what you mean.

Please see

Have a great day!
