http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1163013 Bug ID: 1163013 Summary: access to /dev/nvidia* no longer possible after update Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X11 3rd Party Driver Assignee: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: P.Suetterlin@royac.iac.es QA Contact: sndirsch@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- I updated my TW system to the G05 series from the nvidia repository. After that, SDDM wouldn't start anymore, leaving me only with a black screen and mouse cursor. The logfiles revealed the greeter couldn't create an OpenGL context. So I activated autologin for sddm, so I could work, and next noticed that I cannot use accelerated glx stuff. After a *lot* of hunting around and comparing with the old, still working snapshot, I realized that the update had removed the file /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/nvidia-logind-acl-trick.conf that created neccessary links in the uaccess part of the /run filesystem, so that systemd-logind would allow access to the /dev/nvidia* files. I noticed the file is still mentioned in the postuninstall scripts section of nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default: lux:~% rpm -q --scripts nvidia-gfxG05-kmp-default | grep -B 1 acl-trick # cleanup of bnc# 1000625 rm -f /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/nvidia-logind-acl-trick.conf But nothing seemed to have created it when installing the package :( The BNC thread is quite old - is this still the official method to get access to the device files, or did I miss some change?
