#Resolution and Refresh Rate stuck on NVIDIA

Same for me:

After a restart, I could not change resolution anymore, or refresh rate (both set to weird values, making this bug really hard for my eyes). I have an NVIDIA RTX 2080 graphics card with 535.216 driver installed. Maybe unrelated but: This happened after installing Windows in addition to Vanilla OS on my PC.

Gnome Xorg is missing in login. Yet according to system info, I run X11. Furthermore, when I run nvidia-settings, I get "ERROR: The control display is undefined". When running "xrandr --listactivemonitors" I get "Can't open display" Both I run with "host-shell pkexec".

Somehow it cannot recognize the correct display. I am lost. Any ideas?

#

I tried the same and get the same result: 0 hz. I use a Samsung Ultrawide Curved C49RG94SSU monitor. Which monitor do you use?

Can confirm that this started happening with me as well toward the beginning of this week. Thankfully I'm able to roll back and that fixes the issue temporarily so I assume the cause is a recent update.

So it is very likely a recent update, linked to Nvidia drivers. I cannot rollback, since I made another update, and cannot return to an earlier version.

Same issues for me, stuck 720p also stuck on x11

I have the same issue, and now i crash before the login screen just looping. If anyone has a fix please share, using gtx 1070

#

I tried both a/b boot options

same here, i'm stuck on 1024x728 and 76Hz for no reason (RTX 1050 Ti)
(i' just installed vanilla today)

#

If anyone has a solution please share. I installed Vanilla os a few days ago but i can't stay with this bug much longer

Same issue, I’ve reverted to v1.1.2 for now and that seems to be working.
I’m trying to get some useful logs from both versions atm.
journalctl -b is seeming pretty sparse so having a play with kargs currently.
If anyone knows how to get better boot logs in vanilla os I’d be grateful for the tip 🙂

dire sphinx
#

Figured out how to get the actual boot logs, just switching over to 1.1.3 to grab them now

shell sun
#

nice

rustic echo
#

i switch to 1.1.2 as well and it's working great ! thanks !

shell sun
#

so weird, the recent update did nothing to nvidia 🤔

#

maybe we should try a new sync

dire sphinx
#

the only thing I can think of looking at all the changes up through to /core-image, is the move of the grub binaries. I was wondering if some registration done by the nvidia package might rely on stuff being in the "old" location? may be way off though

shell sun
#

mmmh I do not think that could lead to any issue, nvidia-smi says the kmod is loaded no?

noob q: how does one have Orchid pull a specific image to update to (such as 1.1.2)? I thought it might be done through vso but thats only subsystem stuff. I don't need this urgently as I still have a working image n my A/B i'm about to restore, but it would be useful to specify update images like this

Would someone here be willing to test the new nvidia image?

what do I do

Thank you, you can do:
abroot config-editor
replace "main" with "dev".
save the file
Run
abroot upgrade
reboot

Check if this resolves the issues that you had or if you didn't have any if the image works as expected.

#

Don't forget to change this back to main, since "dev" is too unstable to use normally.

I don't think you did anything wrong. The installer just can be a bit buggy.

Upgrading from v1.1.2... it got stuck syncing on /usr/lib/python3 and has been there now for 7 mins. I have an NVMe SSD so normally it is fast

haughty wind
#

Hm, that's only 112 MB, but maybe a lot of files.
7 min does sound like a lot though. 🤔

#

I mean you can always cancel the process with "Ctrl+C". It's just annoying that you will have to download everything again.

This is already the second run at it. It doesn't seem to unlock upgrades aswell so I have to reboot aswell

now I’m trying to add 75hz using xrandr, but it doesn’t appear in settings

#

nor I can set it from terminal

Very weird.
There is one last resort to fix this but I wouldn't recommend it just to test something.
But if upgrading to the next stable image doesn't work you can run:
host-shell pkexec bash -c "ABROOT_FREE_SPACE=true abroot upgrade"

This will delete everything on your other partition and try to then write the new image to it. If the upgrade fails you will be left with only one working root though, which is why I would not recommend it for testing out an image.

No it doesn't

#

I did already try it and it got stuck aswell

I can report Success.
I got onto dev finally. Gonna post about NVIDIA in the other thread in a sec. Took a little while of persuading abroot with the command you posted and this one:
host-shell pkexec rm -r /var/lib/abroot/storage. I had a bit of trouble getting onto dev: I'm pretty sure now that the files it got stuck on are arbitrary. It got stuck once on the upgrade to dev, and on two other attempts abroot returned 23 and 11 once each, before attempting to create the initramfs. No idea what's going on but it went back to working order with the mentioned commands. It doesn't seem like a 'out of storage space'-problem but I have had those before.
