Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html

2. Be civil

Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".

Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

Bigotry of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.

3. Post Linux-related content

Including Unix and BSD.

Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.

No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.

Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.

4. No recent reposts

Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves / tolerates / hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸

Comments written in other languages are allowed.

The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.

Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.

Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.

Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

Edit: "Updating to the legacy 580xx drivers doesn't show me a desktop anymore", just in case someone else can stumble upon this by searching something similar.

Thanks to @deadcade@lemmy.deadca.de and @Ooops@feddit.org I did try fixing it out of curiosity. I had forgotten to install linux-headers. Hopefully someone who actually has the same problem as me, and needs to fix it, can use the tips given in the comments. On my end, I just had to install linux-headers and one reboot later it worked.

Always check if you have all needed packages and don't just "remember" that you had them installed.

Mr. Incredible meme format where his face goes from happy to more and more concerned at each section. The text for each section is as follows:

Section 1;
Arch has the nvidia-open drivers now, dropping pascal support.

Section 2;
You still use a 10xx series nvidia card.

Section 3;
You forgot to install the legacy drivers and have already updated.

Section 4;
Your GUI doesn't show up anymore.

Section 5;
Installing the legacy drivers through TTY doesn't help.

Hey Look, it's me! I am on nobara against my fucking will. I spent all saturday screaming.

I'm going to refer the shit out of this thread in my news battle to get my goddamn debian OS back. DNF is scary and I can't use signal.

Here's my notes (WARNING: THESE NOTES LEAD TO FAILURE) :

added git to /etc

ran
  git config --global --add safe.directory /etc
because I was geting thsi eror :
  fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/etc'
  To add an exception for this directory, call:

installing drivers

    apt install nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-driver


    WARNING: No kernel headers were found, skipping module build.
             To get the headers for the running kernel (6.12.57+deb13-amd64)
             please install the linux-headers-6.12.57+deb13-amd64 package.
   ran
        apt install linux-headers-generic
   to resolve

   I DID ACTUALL RUN THE FOLLOWING
   _____
   Post-installation steps for Trixie

    Optionally verify the result of the DKMS module compilation:

    # dkms status

    If you plan to use wayland (which is a default for both the Gnome and KDE Plasma desktops since Debian 12 "Bookworm") make sure to follow the Wayland Modesetting notes below.

        If gnome starts with X11, you may enable wayland support by enabling NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1 as mentioned below.

        If you plan to use suspend/hibernate functionality under KDE desktop environment, you may want to add another option to avoid graphics "glitches" after wakeup/restore:
        Warning: skip this step if you have Optimus hybrid graphics

        # echo "options nvidia NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1" >> /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-options.conf

    In most cases a restart of the system is recommended to fully load the new driver. For wayland, check again if modeset is properly set, as described above.
