Hi,
just did that update (from 0208) on my nvidia-based desktop.
It boots to a black screen with cursor only :(
Summary from https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1080742
The permissions of /dev/nvidia-modeset are wrong, and something always sets them back to the default values
A (temporary) fix is to edit /etc/modprobe.d/50-nvidia-default.conf and, in the first line, set the default permission to 0666, i.e.,
options nvidia NVreg_DeviceFileUID=0 NVreg_DeviceFileGID=33 NVreg_DeviceFileMode=0666
and rebuild the initrds.
Note that NVreg_DeviceFileGID should be the ID of the video group (on my TW system it is not 33, but 486)
must happen *only* with the rpm nvidia install as the packaged "run" files do not.
Can you check the modprobe definitions the run file installs and/or the permissions of /dev/nvidia-modeset?
The issue is that the new driver seems to enforce the values specified during load of the module and resets them on any access. If those are correct all is fine, but trying to tweak them using chown/chmod is futile...
Correct. Could anybody confirm my observations from comment #42 of this bugreport? https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1080742#c42 Thanks, Stefan Public Key available ------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Dirsch (Res. & Dev.)
