Davinci resolve doesn't launch

[vital thistle]

How can I switch to the correct driver? What does it even mean?

Not found opencl platforms with appropriate GPUs. Check that you have installed corresponding driver. Otherwise you cannot run DR.
You are not using nvidia as kernel driver. Use proprietary nvidia driver, otherwise you could not use DaVinci Resolve.

For me I got Davinci Resolve to work by downloading libxcrypt-compat https://archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/libxcrypt-compat/

Otherwise make sure you’re using the proprietary driver, probably by downloading the “nvidia” package

I did but whenever I install nvidia and nvidia-utils and reboot my system it gets stuck at graphical interface

And then I have to remove them for my system to boot properly

I’ve been trying to install it since September 2023

[trim blade]

try running it with prime-run or DRI_PRIME

[vital thistle]

Isnt this for laptops?

[trim blade]

yes and no

it's for offloading rendering process to another gpu different from the one connected to monitor

most common use is for laptops isnce the display is connected to the integrated graphic sinstead of dedicated

What I found for nvidia drivers

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DaVinci_Resolve

If I install nvidia-utils, it doesn't even boot

it gets stuck on "graphical interface"

[trim blade]

if you do install nvidia-utils

it's needed btw for opengl, vulkan, openc, cuda, nvenc, nvdec, etc
it's so needed i thought you had it installed allready

so do install nvidia-utils and set modeset=1 option for the nvidia_drm kmod

[vital thistle]

But if I install it nothing works when I reboot my system

like I thought it was broken

[trim blade]

do this

[vital thistle]

btw im running endeavourOS-lts

[vital thistle]

okay ill try

[vital thistle]

what does this do ?

[trim blade]

basically put this into /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf

options nvidia_drm modeset=1

and then run dracut to regenerate the initramf or kernel-install is it?
i forgot what endeavour uses

[trim blade]

ah you're also using nouveau instead of nvidia proprietary

[vital thistle]

mkinitcpio

[trim blade]

pretty sure endeavour defaults to dracut

well to be safe you can just reinstall the kernel which will trigger the rigth intiramfs generator

[vital thistle]

whenever i try to run dracut I would get no such command as dracut

okay i will try that when I get home

will report

[trim blade]

1. so install

sudo pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils

2. then edit your initramfs generator config to include nvidia_drm kmod
3. then put this into /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf

options nvidia_drm modeset=1

4. regerate initramfs
5. done ig

Followed all the stepa

This gets me here
