** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+
+ * Users of nvidia-smi in nvidia-utils-460 are running across this
+ issue:
+
+ /usr/bin/nvidia-modprobe: unrecognized option: "-s"
+
+ * At this point, nvidia-smi is not returning the desired output.
+
+ * Description of nvidia-smi follows:
+
+ NVIDIA System Management Interface -- v460.32.03
+
+ NVSMI provides monitoring information for Tesla and select Quadro devices.
+ The data is presented in either a plain text or an XML format, via stdout or
a file.
+ NVSMI also provides several management operations for changing the device
state.
+
+ Note that the functionality of NVSMI is exposed through the NVML C-based
+ library. See the NVIDIA developer website for more information about NVML.
+ Python wrappers to NVML are also available. The output of NVSMI is
+ not guaranteed to be backwards compatible; NVML and the bindings are backwards
+ compatible.
+
+ http://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-management-library-nvml/
+ http://pypi.python.org/pypi/nvidia-ml-py/
+ Supported products:
+ - Full Support
+ - All Tesla products, starting with the Kepler architecture
+ - All Quadro products, starting with the Kepler architecture
+ - All GRID products, starting with the Kepler architecture
+ - GeForce Titan products, starting with the Kepler architecture
+ - Limited Support
+ - All Geforce products, starting with the Kepler architecture
+
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ * Install nvidia-utils-460 from the archive.
+
+ * Attempt to run nvidia-smi.
+
+ * Output reports error mentioned above, nvidia-modprobe is not working
+ as expected.
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ * This may or may not affect users of older Nvidia cards. Backporting
+ nvidia-modprobe on a RTX-2070 system running Focal returns desired
+ results.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ * I would be open to questions from the Kernel team for this fix.
+
+
+ Original bug report (originally a backport request) follows:
+
Please backport nvidia-modprobe 460.32.03-1 (multiverse) from hirsute to
focal, groovy.
Reason for the backport:
========================
Currently, nvidia-smi in nvidia-utils-460 calls "nvidia-modprobe -s", but the
following error occurs:
/usr/bin/nvidia-modprobe: unrecognized option: "-s"
At this point, nvidia-smi is not returning the desired output.
Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the
checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.
You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s hirsute -d focal
nvidia-modprobe
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s hirsute -d groovy
nvidia-modprobe
Built in https://launchpad.net/~eeickmeyer/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
* focal:
[!] Package builds without modification
- - Requires dropping debhelper-compat to 12 and Standards-Version to
4.5.0. This is trivial.
