Where.. It's simple. Just make an account on the NVIDIA site; it's available for free download. I was looking in the wrong place earlier. it's on the 2nd or 3rd page.
I applied for an NVIDIA Enterprise Account twice. And I don't get an answer. Therefore, I can not go in and download the necessary driver.
What is the "display mode" exactly? I dont see much reference for that on the article. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 Server with a P2200 and getting no output from:
Code:
nvidia-smi vgpu
No supported devices in vGPU modeor
Code:
mdevctl typesCan't install nvidia vGPU driver. This is what I have as error message.
Any suggestion?
Bash:
ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. This happens most frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs from the one used to build the target kernel, or if another driver, such as nouveau, is present and prevents the NVIDIA kernel module from obtaining ownership of the NVIDIA device(s), or no NVIDIA device installed in this system is supported by this NVIDIA Linux graphics driver release.

Hi,
the error you get might indicate that you have blacklisted the `nvidia` kernel module. What's the output of
modprobe nvidia?
root@pve:~# modprobe nvidia
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found in directory /lib/modules/5.15.107-2-pve
blacklist.conf's content:
blacklist radeon
blacklist nouveau
blacklist nvidiafb
Thank you for your assistance.
display mode refers to a feature some cards have where they're either 'normal' gpus without vgpu functions or in vgpu mode but without display out functionality (e.g. the rtx a5000 is such a card)
but since your p2200 is not a vgpu capable card anyway this does not matter?
can you post the content of the /var/log/nvidia-installer.log file too? also the output of 'pveversion -v' would be interesting
for official support from nvidia check out: https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/gpus-supported-by-vgpu.html
This card is vGPU capable actually, maybe not "supported". I was able to get it running. I also have a P4 and a T4 so let's try and be helpful instead of writing things off as "does not matter"...

i hope you can understand that we cannot really support "unofficial" ways to get vgpu running (though i think i know what you mean
) but i did already answer your question regarding display modeit was not really clear what you meant with
ubuntu as a guest? where did you run the commands?
