Configuration needs to be recreated upon restart (looping) #34

Closed jagalletta closed 6 years ago

jagalletta commented 6 years ago

I'm sure this is something I'm doing wrong, but when I restart my computer, the config file needs to be recreated, and then the software asks me to restart again, at which point the config needs to be created again. How can I make sure the changes to the config file make it through the reboot process?

OS: Ubuntu 17.10 Build: 1.4.5

hi After nvidiux made change for configure your system Check if xorg.conf file exist in /etc/x11 and post this content here

Hi I have the same issue as the poster, loops asking to restart system.

Here's the contents of xorg.conf

Section "Device" Option "Coolbits" "28" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "nvidia" EndSection

I was having the same problem, but sort of resolved it. There's a stack overflow talking about a similar issue:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/731990/gpu-manager-overwrites-xorg-conf/732004

Copy pasting that solution:

OK, as per this blogpost, adding nogpumanager to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub solves the issue. Thus, the line in /etc/default/grub should look like:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nogpumanager" After you edit the file, don't forget to run:

sudo update-grub

I tried that and it did stop the system from overriding the file. However, after doing that, nvidiux says my particular cards were not whitelisted (e.g., GTX 1070 Tis), and overclocking seemed to be enabled for only one of the GPUs. The rest, even though the coolbits 28 setting was there, did not seem to be overclockable.

Hi Gtx 1070 Ti will be ok with new 2.0 version of nvidiux Thanks for sharing this solution.
