Hello! I have maybe found a way to do this. I found this older email archive where similar problem was described: https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg40422.html
With this -cpu arguments show up corretcly in log. But the it still won't fix nvidia problem 43, which is annoying "bug" implemented by nvidia. I have several gtx graphic cards collecting dust and would like to use them, but fail to do so... best regards Mikko On Thu, Sep 28, 2017 at 8:46 AM, Yedidyah Bar David <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, Sep 27, 2017 at 8:32 PM, M R <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello! > > > > Thank you very much!
