[Bug 1674930] Re: Amazon EC2 instances broken
It would be good if the legacy drivers (nvidia-367) were reinstated and not made transitional. Maybe they should be named appropriately to reflect that they should only be used for grid GPUs or that they are legacy - `nvidia-grid`/`nvidia-grid-legacy`. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674930 Title: Amazon EC2 instances broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/1674930/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1674930] Re: Amazon EC2 instances broken
nvidia-367 was removed as part of the CVE-2016-8826 & CVE-2017-0318 fix in #1659586 nvidia-367 was considered no longer supported by NVIDIA, so nvidia-375 was uploaded and nvidia-367 replaced with a transitional package to upgrade. The error message suggests that there is a 367 series of legacy driver, though the legacy driver page presently lists no such series (http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html). According to the README, the 367 series driver will in fact be maintained specially for GRID GPUs only. Quote from: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/375.39/README/supportedchips.html ftp://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/linux-nvidia/Linux-x86/375.10/README/README.txt Below are the legacy GPUs that are no longer supported in the unified driver. These GPUs will continue to be maintained through the special legacy NVIDIA GPU driver releases. The 367.xx driver supports the following set of GPUs: NVIDIA GPU product Device PCI ID* VDPAU features -- --- --- GRID K340 0FEF D GRID K1 0FF2 D GRID K520 118A D GRID K2 11BF D In terms of short-term workarounds, the nvidia-340 package also claims to support the K520. It may be a usable alternative until a nvidia-367 solution is available. ** CVE added: http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi- bin/cvename.cgi?name=2016-8826 ** CVE added: http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi- bin/cvename.cgi?name=2017-0318 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674930 Title: Amazon EC2 instances broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/1674930/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

That workaround doesn't work for me because of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1655584, which loads the nvidia kernel module repeatedly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674930 Title: Amazon EC2 instances broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/1674930/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

as a temporary workaround I installed the drivers manually ` apt-get install build-essential -y curl -O http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/367.57/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-367.57.run chmod +x ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-*.run ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-*.run -q -a -n -X -s ` for the full setup look here https://github.com/plumbee/nvidia-hw- accelerated-box -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674930 Title: Amazon EC2 instances broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/1674930/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
