Hi thanks for the help in advance, I’m trying to install the nvidia drivers in my Lenovo Ideapad gaming (Debian 12)
AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics (16) → AMD ATI 05:00.0 Renoir
NVIDIA 01:00.0 NVIDIA Corporation TU117M
I’m kind of a newbie when messing with more complicated things, I searched for some info and came across various yet not similar issues: here is an output of inxi -G
Graphics:
Device-1: NVIDIA TU117M driver: nvidia v: 575.57.08
Device-2: AMD Renoir driver: amdgpu v: kernel
Device-3: Bison Integrated Camera type: USB driver: uvcvideo
Display: x11 server: X.Org v: 1.21.1.7 with: Xwayland v: 22.1.9 driver: X:
loaded: amdgpu unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,nouveau,vesa failed: nvidia
dri: radeonsi gpu: amdgpu,nvidia,nvidia-nvswitch resolution:
1: 1920x1080~60Hz 2: 1920x1080~60Hz
API: OpenGL v: 4.6 Mesa 22.3.6 renderer: AMD Radeon Graphics (renoir LLVM
15.0.6 DRM 3.49 6.1.0-37-amd64)
with command lspci -nn | egrep -i “3d|display|vga”
this was the output
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation TU117M [10de:1f99] (rev a1)
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Renoir [1002:1636] (rev c6)
Also I came across this: NVIDIA Optimus - Debian Wiki
When searching for something in the debian wiki but im not sure on exactly how to… I’m a little afraid I might mess something on my own :c
in all and all I’m kind of lost on how to approach it, let me know if I should put something else, thank you so much :c
I’m a bit confused as your OP does not state what problem you are actually facing: does something crash? too low performance? wrong GPU being used? And by what programs / games and how are you running them? Linux native Vulkan or Wine or Proton / Steam or Lutris or other?
Also what does “it doesn’t shows” mean for nvidia-smi? Please post the exact full output.
Finally, how did you install the Nvidia driver? from *.run installer or from the apt repo? Was the installation fully successful? Please post your bug report log. Are the modules loaded? (please post the output of lsmod |grep nvidia)
On a side note: Debian-12 is an archaic system, I’d recommend upgrading to 13rc1. (you can then just use the mentioned Nvidia’s apt repo for Debian-12: it just works).
Hi @litostvitale ,
Thanks for reporting this issue. It looks like your NVIDIA driver module has failed to load.
Could you kindly attach a bug report here. I will look into it and provide an update.
