NVIDIA 515.65.01 - Githubissues

gangwerz commented 2 years ago

Driver passed testing on the galp5-1650Ti with Pop/Ubuntu 20.04 & 22.04

A couple ongoing Ubuntu issues were seen:

Steam continues to not launch from the app menu, but does launch from a Terminal.
Proton Experimental throws an error when you launch a game. Switching to a versioned release addresses the behavior.

ubuntu has had issues with previous Nvidia driver versions if in nvidia or hybrid trying to run anything with dedicated GPU (blender also crashes)

Pop 22.04 oryp9

Testing

This document provides a guideline for testing and verifying NVIDIA driver updates. Copy this checklist and mark items as they are verified to work.

These tests must be performed on every OS version that the driver will be released on. Typically, that will be the Pop!_OS regular release, the Pop!_OS LTS, and the Ubuntu LTS.

Installation

Add the staging branch containing the updated driver with the apt script in the pop-os/pop repo.

[x] sudo apt upgrade updates the driver without conflicts (Ubuntu may require full-upgrade).

Laptop graphics (switchable graphics)

Switchable graphics laptops can render with either the CPU-integrated GPU or the dedicated NVIDIA GPU. Before installing the driver update, make sure the machine is in Hybrid graphics mode.

[x] After update and reboot, the machine remained in Hybrid graphics mode.

Hybrid mode tests

[x] Laptop suspends and resumes (works with a bluetooth device paired)
[x] nvidia-smi correctly reports the GPU's status
[x] DisplayPort (mDP and DP over USB-C) outputs (including sound) work as expected
[x] HDMI-out (including sound) works as expected
[x] External display becomes primary display when laptop lid is closed
[x] HDMI-out fractional scaling on external monitor works at 125%, 150%, 175%
[x] DisplayPort (mDP and DP over USB-C) fractional scaling on external monitor works at 125%, 150%, 175%
[x] Steam can be installed and launched
- [x] From Launcher
- [x] From App Library
- [x] From Dock
- [x] From Terminal
[x] A native Linux game can be launched from Steam
[x] A Proton game can be launched from Steam

NOTES: for HDMI fractional scaling to work I had to use a 4k display

NVIDIA mode tests

[x] Laptop suspends and resumes (works with a bluetooth device paired)
[x] nvidia-smi correctly reports the GPU's status
[x] DisplayPort (mDP and DP over USB-C) outputs (including sound) work as expected
[x] HDMI-out (including sound) works as expected
[x] External display becomes primary display when laptop lid is closed
[x] HDMI-out fractional scaling on external monitor works at 125%, 150%, 175%
[x] DisplayPort (mDP and DP over USB-C) fractional scaling on external monitor works at 125%, 150%, 175%
[x] Steam can be installed and launched
- [x] From Launcher
- [x] From App Library
- [x] From Dock
- [x] From Terminal
[x] A native Linux game can be launched from Steam
[x] A Proton game can be launched from Steam

NOTES: for HDMI fractional scaling to work I had to use a 4k display

Compute mode tests

[x] nvidia-smi correctly reports the GPU's status
[x] Plugging in a display correctly prompts to switch to Hybrid mode

Integrated mode test

[x] Plugging in a display correctly prompts to switch to Hybrid mode
[x] Steam can be installed and launched
- [x] From Launcher
- [x] From App Library
- [x] From Dock
- [x] From Terminal
[x] A native Linux game can be launched from Steam
[x] A Proton game can be launched from Steam

Software tests

These can be done on any machine with an NVIDIA GPU

[x] NVIDIA X Server Settings application launches properly
[x] A Unigine benchmark performs as expected

This is looking good on Pop 22.04 on mira-b3 with a 2080. I'd like to test another Nvidia desktop with Ubuntu 22.04 as well, then it should be good to go.

@leviport This played nicely on the Mega R2 with 3060Ti under Ubuntu - I'd be comfortable releasing this if a desktop Ubuntu check was the last thing you were looking for.
