Always searches updates for computing card Tesla M40 instead of 1080 Ti #177

gpu name: Tesla M40 is Notebook: false

these are almost never the primary card though. this is for a ai project. [may need code to select main gpu over seconday]

Hi, can you please show all your GPUs in a device manager screenshot?

I intend to expand to 5 video devices for ai. [a 1080ti + 4 nvidia teslam40 cards]

ElPumpo commented 1 year ago

Uuum okay yea I belive with multiple GPUs my needs to identify this and make you able to choose which one.

Currently I belive the code just chooses the first regex match, I take it your main GPU is 1080 Ti? But does the Tesla cards not receive frequent driver updates aswell?

Tom-Neverwinter commented 1 year ago

I dont think the tesla will ever receive a new official driver.

however, for a quick setup your tool is far superior in every way. this also doesn't remove the possibility of other ai engineers using other card setups or variations

ElPumpo commented 1 year ago

So I assume you want to use TNUC to check drivers for your 1080 Ti card?

TNUC needs proper logic for multiple card handling. For example one like in this case computing cards that should be ignored, and instead search for the next GPU if it's a GTX/RTX/Whatever.

hmm having a weird issue with running it. tried to run the exe for the dotnet 8 (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/sdk-8.0.301-windows-x64-binaries) and it wouldn't run the grabbed the other version and it ran fine? (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/sdk-8.0.301-windows-x64-installer) however the tiny nvidia update checker wont run. window bar at bottom pops up for a sec then disappears. going to do a quick reboot and see if it is finally appeased? I think I see why, I replaced the x86 with x64 whoops. https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0 [yay multiple enviroments] well it loaded then crashed. let me get a log or screenshot

No it's not a runtime error it would never run if that was the case. Other users have the same issue I need to investigate

ElPumpo commented 4 months ago

That bug is fixed in the newest release
