nvidia installed packages

I guess this is the change in our kernel for 6.2.1 to no longer load unsigned kernel modules. :-( 

In order to verify this either boot an older kernel or disable Secureboot in your Firmware/BIOS.

But I see you're trying to use the openGPU driver from nvidia now. AFAIK GT1030 is still Pascal architecture, which is not supported by this driver. You would need to select nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default instead and remove again nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-default and kernel-firmware-nvidia-gsp-G06.

I disabled "secure boot"

same result : no opencl or cuda

I did not install these packages. I just selected nvidia-drivers-minimal-G06 package.

... which then selected and installed these.

%package -n nvidia-drivers-minimal-G06
Summary:        Meta package for compute only installations
Group:          System/X11/Utilities
Requires:       nvidia-compute-utils-G06
Requires:       nvidia-compute-G06
Requires:       (nvidia-driver-G06-kmp = %{version} or nvidia-open-driver-G06-kmp = %{version} or nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp = %{version})

%description -n nvidia-drivers-minimal-G06
This is just a Meta package for compute only installations.

Please try what I told you.

Now :
- secureboot is disabled
- the required packages are installed
- the non compliant packages are no more installed.

success : fah detects opencl and cuda.

Ok. Hopefully this is fixed now with the following changes.

- moved cuda-drivers provides to nvidia-compute-utils-G06 

Updated packages should be available soon.

What does it means ?

Can we enable secure boot ?

Can we use nvidia-drivers-minimal-G06 package with a GT 1030 ?

A secondary question : 
when proceeding a headless installation we don't get anymore the adapter sensors and the app “NVIDIA settings”. It would be a good thing to get them again, perhaps with a separate package.

Yes.

> Can we use nvidia-drivers-minimal-G06 package with a GT 1030 ?

Since it selects the open driver by default at least on your system (not sure why; maybe you can taboo it via zypper lock) the answer is no. What you can try is

  zypper in --no-recommends nvidia-compute-utils-G06 nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default

Not sure what you mean with that. Special app? Maybe

nvidia-settings is now in nvidia-utils-G06 package due to its dependancies

"headless" installation of the driver <=> minimal installation for computing

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean with "adapter sensors".

The sensor of the nvidia card for delivering temp for example.

to get temp we need to install the video driver

Which video driver? You mean the X driver? This sounds weird. So which file is missing here?

I don't know which part to install to get sensors.

I know only if I proceed a minimal installation for computing then i get no more any sensor to display with gkrellm.

I can see the temperature in the output of 'nvidia-smi' which is part of nvidia-compute-utils-G06. So together with nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default I don't see what's missing here ...

We can get temp, fans etc. without using SMI.

Gkrellm detects not any sensors with a minimal installation.

gkrellm is a desktop app. So of course it needs some video driver. But I had the impression you had some different gfx card (internal Intel probably) for your desktop and used the nvidia card just for CUDA/OpenCL. No idea what gkrellm does. If it checks the temperature of the gfx card currently in use for the desktop or also additional nvidia gfx cards.

I don't force anybody to make use of the minimal installation.

If I made a full installation of the NVIDIA card along the Intel iGPU and i don't use the NVIDIA card for the monitor, just for computing, there is no sensor problem. Gkrellm detects the nvidia sensors for displaying temp, fan, etc. that's why I say sensor part installation is missing with a minimal installation.

I just say that for computing, it is useful to know GPU core temp, fan speed, etc.

Then I guess it's some library in nvidia-gl-G06 or nvidia-video-G06, which is needed by gkrellm. You could try to figure out which one ...

I installed nvidia-gl-G06.

No sensors.

Then certainly the sensor part is in nvidia-video-G06.

Hmm. Interesting. That would be one of these:

rpm -qpl nvidia-video-G06-525.89.02-7.1.x86_64.rpm 
/usr/lib64/gbm
/usr/lib64/gbm/nvidia-drm_gbm.so
/usr/lib64/libnvcuvid.so

/usr/lib64/libnvidia-encode.so.1
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-encode.so.525.89.02
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-opticalflow.so.1
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-opticalflow.so.525.89.02
/usr/lib64/libvdpau_nvidia.so
/usr/lib64/vdpau
/usr/lib64/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.1
/usr/lib64/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.525.89.02

Ok. ChatGPT just told me that gkrellm uses nVidia's XNVCtrl Xserver extension tp display the temperature. I'm not sure how this extension gets added to the Xserver. Either by loading nVidia's glx extension or the X driver itself. But both are in nvidia-gl-G06.

/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglxserver_nvidia.so.525.89.02
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so

You can check that with xdpyinfo. One of the extension will be called 'XNVCtrl' or similar. So of course after installing nvidia-gl-G06 you also need to restart the Xserver.

I don't understand how to use xdpyinfo.

Just run it in a terminal on the desktop.

I was wrong. The extension, which are added by NVIDIA are

    NV-CONTROL
    NV-GLX

So I think NV-CONTROL is what is being used by gkrellm (using the XNVCtrl library).

BTW, I only found a gkrellm plugin, which we don't ship AFAIK.

https://github.com/carcass82/gkrellm-nvidia

But this now switched from XNVCtrl library is to NVML ...

This begs the question where your gkrellm is coming from ...

With Yast software manager, I found a “libXNVCtrl0” 510.47.03 package.
There is not any 525.89 version.

Perhaps a solution ?

My gkrellm is coming from tumbleweed main repo OSS.

Ok. Just figured out that gkrellm uses 'nvidia-settings' tool internally to display the temperature. This is in package nvidia-utils-G06. But of course you still need also nvidia-gl-G06 since 'nvidia-settings' also used NV-CONTROL Xserver extension. But with that this is no longer a minimal installation. ;-)

NVML is used by SMI. Then it is installed with a minimal installation just for computing.

If we can't separate the sensor part of the Nvidia driver, perhaps it is possible to create fake sensors. 
These sensors would deliver temp, fan speed, frequency etc. These fake sensors would use SMI to deliver the values. 

The "nvidia" plugin of gkrellm does not create fake sensors, but just display in Gkrellm the output of SMI. This plugin can inspire a developper to cretae fake sensors.

there is 

/usr/lib64/libnvidia-ml.so
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-ml.so.1
/usr/lib64/libnvidia-ml.so.525.89.02

in nvidia-compute-G06

Well, so why not use SMI from the beginning for this purpose? As I told you 'nvidia-smi' can tell you the temperature without the need for NV-CONTROL/libXNVCtrl0 interface.

Yes, nvidia-smi needs it.

I think this gkrellm Plugin making using of NVML (I guess it's just using libnvida-ml, but I didn't check this) is the right approach here.

Because SMI is not a monitoring tool.

A monitoring tool display permanently, in an easy way on my desktop, various values as Gkrellm does.

Gkrellm "nvidia" plugin runs well. But it is a workaround. It works only with Gkrellm.

Obviously it does ...

https://github.com/carcass82/gkrellm-nvidia/blob/master/Makefile
[...]
LDLIBS  += -lX11 -lnvidia-ml
[...]

What "Obviously it does" ?

Feel free to improve the situation. I currently don't see how changing the packaging would help here. Minimal installation should not have any deps to X libs or even Xserver. Period.

That was an additional comment to comment#35

*** Bug 1208966 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I built and installed the updated nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default and it did not work for me. I noticed you've added some stuff using mokutil. I do not use shim for booting, instead have dracut configured to produce signed .efi images containing kernel + initramfs (the `uefi_secureboot_cert` option)

Is there anything i can do (most likely add something to `kernel_cmdline`) to make this work in such a setup?

(Disabling signature enforcement in kernel would be fine for me, as the initramfs is signed while the system drive is under FDE)

Repositories haven't been updated with my changes yet.

Yes, but today I noticed that my changes simple don't help. Looks like things need to be done differently with TW kernels than with kernels on openSUSE Leap. :-(

Honestly I'm not an expert on this area. So I'm afraid I can't help you here. :-(

Without shim which means without MOK, the only way is rebuild kernel and put the public key of nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default to kernel. 

Or disable secure boot.

Another approach, maybe we can try to enable CONFIG_SYSTEM_EXTRA_CERTIFICATE in openSUSE Tumbleweed kernel. As I remember, it will reserve a space for user to enroll public key to the space, then user needs to re-sign kernel by him self. So user doesn't need to re-compiler kernel to embedded public key.

Closing as duplicate.
