15:00.12me-sudoer-dentneanyone wants to give me some heads up
15:00.27me-sudoer-dentneso that i dont messup
15:00.40VulcanRidrMorning or other timezine approproate greeting. Is it possible to run nvidia drivers on beowulf? I get a ton of unmet dependencies when I apt-get install nvidia-driver. Things like nvidia-installer-cleanup, nvidia-legacy-check, nvidia-driver-libs, etc. Is there a dedicated repo for the nvidia stuff?
15:02.06me-sudoer-dentneare you sure you checked with the 'non-free firmware' part on the official website of devuan?
15:06.25VulcanRidrme-sudoer-dentne: I didn't even know it existed. I was going from https://gist.github.com/Kreyren/cccf642ce672fd8f127ed128cf27749b
15:06.56me-sudoer-dentneok
15:11.01VulcanRidrI found the non-free firmware section in the Beowulf release notes, but it specifically mentions networking hardware.
15:11.19gnarfaceyou need non-free and contrib for nvidia drivers, just like with debian
15:11.47*** join/#devuan cocoadaemon (~foo@2a01:e0a:4e1:97e0:a69c:dc6e:df01:d357)
15:12.19VulcanRidrI have this in my sources.list:
15:12.52gnarfaceuse paste.debian.net please
15:13.05gnarfaceyou'll get kicked for spamming if you paste more than 3 lines
15:13.20VulcanRidrI was only going to paste one line, but I can paste the whole thing. Moment.
15:15.59VulcanRidrhttp://paste.debian.net/1182247/
15:20.25gnarfacechange it to this: https://paste.debian.net/1182250/
15:21.03gnarfacedunno if your line #11 is even syntactically accurate, but it's redundant anyway if not, and you're missing contrib
15:22.12gnarfaceyou might not need contrib, but there's not much else that can cause this problem besides that or packages from the wrong repo
15:22.31gnarfaceyou didn't mix other versions of debian or devuan or ubuntu with this?
15:22.41gnarfaceeven backports from the previous release might get in the way and need to be removed
15:23.03gnarfaceit's important you distinguish the missing dependencies errors from being the wrong versions or not existent in the repo at all
15:23.27VulcanRidrNo. Clean Beowulf install.
15:23.57VulcanRidrYeah, that works much better. :)
15:27.45gnarfaceme-sudoer-dentne: the experience shouldn't be different from debian except that the installer includes the non-free wifi firmware
15:29.02me-sudoer-dentneand could you please confirm it has support for amd stoney igpu
15:29.24me-sudoer-dentneit has been even a headache for debian installation

15:35.47gnarfaceugh, i hate it when they don't wait for an answer
15:36.18gnarfaceif me-sudoer-dentne comes back, tell them i don't know but there's a backports kernel and firmware that should
15:36.38brocashelmmaybe the headache got worse
15:40.10gnarfaceyou need the backports kernel and nvidia drivers for anything in the 10XX series or newer, too

17:48.19gnarfacedo we think he was actually looking for amdgpu-pro, or maybe he meant firmware-amd-graphics from non-free?  everyone i've asked who should know says the amdgpu-pro driver isn't maintained anymore
17:49.42fsmithredmaybe, I don't know
17:50.37fsmithredI got thrown off by blender.
17:50.43gnarfacethat's where i started at with this, so my suspicion is that it's a common error
17:51.45gnarfacehowever, even if he had it installed, he'd probably need to know to install some specific *libopencl* packages too
17:52.12gnarfacei can't imagine if blender supported opencl it'd be through any other libarary
17:53.01nemognarface: hm. I could've helped him I guess, since I installed amdgpu-pro in beowulf
17:53.05nemobut. too late now
17:53.15gnarfacenemo: which kernel?
17:53.21nemowhatever the default is
17:53.27gnarfacehmm, 4.19 i think?
17:53.32nemosounds right
17:53.48gnarfacehmm, news to me they have support for that new of a kernel, i had assumed they stopped before that
17:54.32nemognarface: well. you could be right. I think I switched to chimæra specifically because of ubuntu 18.04/devuan mismatches after debian bumped the kernel last fall
17:54.47nemoit worked for a while though ☺
17:55.27nemognarface: https://m8y.org/tmp/amdgpu.html  I think I linked to my little description of what that was all about before.
17:55.48gnarfacenemo: i'd readily believe you got away with installing it on a beowulf install with the 4.9 kernel left over from ascii
17:56.31nemono
17:56.37nemognarface: I didn't use an ascii kernel
17:56.44gnarfacealright, noted

18:00.48fsmithredthe version number has 2019 in it
18:03.13gnarfacenemo: hey i don't suppose you'd mind dumping your vdpauinfo output for me?  i want to compare it to the regular amdgpu drivers on ceres
18:03.55nemowell. I'm not using amdgpu-pro anymore
18:04.07gnarfacenemo: oh, bummer.  i became suspicious when it apparently supported less features than my ancient nvidia 5XX and 6XX cards, but i don't know if it's a hardware or driver limitation
18:04.43gnarface(wondering if the open source drivers are being sandbagged upstream)
18:04.58nemognarface: basically the ubuntu amdgpu-pro I was using stopped working after a kernel update in beowulf, and I didn't feel like forcing older kernel. since chimæra had gotten fairly reliable at that point according to fsmithred, I just bumped upwards
18:05.07nemognarface: I didn't have any great reason for using pro really
18:05.14nemoapart from lack of support in beowulf for my card
18:05.32gnarfacenemo: well, that would be my one reason, is if it actually had more features
18:05.50gnarfacenothing else i'm doing seems to require it
18:06.12nemosupposedly it's helpful for OpenCL? not sure. haven't gotten around to investigating this. maybe the distro drivers do that too
18:06.21nemognarface: there's an opencl vram tester I've been meaning to try out
18:06.31nemoand, darktable and gimp have some opencl support
18:07.19gnarfacenemo: that Guest guy was saying he needed it for a blender feature, but i'd also be curious to know if that plain just didn't work with the open source driver or if it's just slower
18:07.44gnarfacenemo: (or if it's as i presumed, the same, but he was missing the firmware-amd-graphics package)
18:08.33nemognarface: it may well be for opencl support
18:08.50gnarfacei don't know what he was talking about specifically either though
18:09.05nemognarface: I know that my coworker is using the nvidia blob in his new workstation for darktable
18:09.10gnarfaceblender runs fine here as far as i can tell, so i assume it's not something that you need just for hardware rendering of the viewport
18:09.14nemosupposedly due to lack of opencl in nouveau
18:09.42fsmithredI have ascii with an amd RS780L
18:09.43gnarfacewell, nouveau wouldn't even support hardware acceleration of any type on every card
18:09.44nemognarface: yeah, the problem is that using opencl in darktable (and perhaps blender) is like 100x faster than on the CPU
18:10.05nemohm
18:10.07nemohttps://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-software/using-opencl-from-amdgpu-pro-in-linux-without-the-rest/td-p/87264
18:10.10nemointeresting idea
18:10.12fsmithredwill that give you any info you want, gnarface ?
18:11.01nemobookmarks that AMD community page
18:11.08nemoI might give that a shot
18:11.13nemono need right now, but good to have as a backup
18:11.32gnarfacefsmithred: nah, thanks though.  nemo has a RX5600 and i have a RX5500 so they should be practically identical aside from any differences in amdgpu-pro behavior, which is why i was curious
18:12.50nemognarface: overall I was not very happy with amdgpu-pro
18:13.03nemognarface: it seemed to render things less reliably than the distro drivers
18:13.12gnarfaceyea, i haven't heard a lot of good feedback about it from anyone
18:13.22gnarfacei heard it was very crashy
18:13.29nemognarface: and I had to drop back to an older release after my upgrade caused reliable crashing in a bunch of games
18:13.40nemognarface: I filed a bug with them on that but never got any acknowledgement
18:14.02nemoso I'm pretty happy in chimæra with distro drivers.
18:14.19nemobut that community thing is something I may try if I want faster graphic app performance.
18:15.09gnarfaceyea that looks like an interesting trick but i notice it's for kernel 4.8 so it's been a while....
18:17.43nemohm
18:17.58nemognarface: well. says 4.9
18:18.44nemognarface: what I like about the approach is there are a number of amdgpu packages for different ubuntu versions
18:19.01nemognarface: it may well be I can just grab a newer one with newer kernel support and apply the same process to it
18:19.18nemomaybe I'll test it out with memtestcl just to see
18:20.23gnarfacehmmm, good luck
