Hello together,
after an update today (zypper patch && zypper up) parts of nvidia fail to build. noticable at start it mentions another compiler is being used than used for building the kernel. cc instead of gcc (both 7.5 thou).
# warning: the compiler differs from the one used to build the kernel # The kernel was built by: gcc (SUSE Linux) 7.5.0 # You are using: cc (SUSE Linux) 7.5.0
subsequently, everything looks normal until:
# make: command: Command not found # Makefile:63: WARNING: Unable to locate the compiler gcc from CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT in the kernel configuration. # rm -f -r conftest # make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-6.4.0-150600.23.17' # make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-6.4.0-150600.23.17-obj/x86_64/default' # CLEAN /usr/src/kernel-modules/nvidia-550.135-default # CLEAN /usr/src/kernel-modules/nvidia-550.135-default/Module.symvers # make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-6.4.0-150600.23.17-obj/x86_64/default' # make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-6.4.0-150600.23.17' # / # EFI variables are not supported on this system # # Modprobe blacklist files have been created at /etc/modprobe.d to prevent Nouveau from loading. This can be reverted by deleting /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-*.conf. # # *** Reboot your computer and verify that the NVIDIA graphics driver can be loaded. *** # # sort: write failed: 'standard output': Broken pipe # sort: write error # /usr/bin/lsinitrd: line 203: echo: write error: Broken pipe
may it be caused by the other compiler? how to fix/change compiler?
if you need full log, I can try. not an expert in vim (yet) - no X available on any computer now.
Thank you, Regards
Paul
boot a prior kernel until you have an updated nvidia package

yea, somehow it did work despite the errors!? don't know anymore - only trouble with the proprietary nvidia. after sending the e-mail I tried one more thing: rmmod all loaded nvidia- modules modprobe nvidia and it worked. Display froze at booting (forget to mention that) around mounting the root filesystem. Are there other, better supported (including computation and 3d acceleration, etc.) video cards, I could consider in the future? Thanks again, Paul.

Well you could start again and again the discussion about using amd or nvidia, i personally have made the decision after opensuse 10.2? to throw away 2 nvidia cards and using amd and the open source drivers on tumbleweed. (one i throw really away, the other, i was able to bring back to the computer shop and changed it) - yes in that days people where going to small shops and buy computers direct there. :-)) amd it might be not 100% as fast as nvidia, but i have had only one problem i remember since then: in this year, with one of the gaming computers, i remember not completely, it was a pretty new, high end amd model, opensuse was booting after update and also going into graphical desktop, but was only displaying half of the screen. going back (with yast2 in graphical mode (on the left side of the screen) to one "amd-firmware" before, waiting about 3 to 4 weeks for the correction of the firmware for tumbleweed solved the problem. this is the only video card issue i remember since throwing nvidia away. i do not know how the opensource drivers of nvidia nowadays will lead into a better solution than the proprietary drivers, or what the difference (for a user) is. simoN -- www.becherer.de

Thank you for sharing your experience. I think I used AMD graphics (or was it intel?) on some laptops without bigger issues, but never used them for gaming. On the desktop computers I occasionly try video games. And almost no trouble if the nvidia drivers were working. Regards Paul
