Solved linuxulator switching to non root user in the chroot to run davinci resolve

downloading update which will take about an hour
then the next step is using makeresolvedeb to create the deb from the resolve zip will take another hour

time to stare at the screen for a while
 
you are going too fast. I suggest to upgrade even lunar to mantic and then to install the nvidia drivers following "my" method,checking if they are installed correctly issuing the command "nvidia-smi" ;
 
i want to check if the drivers match in lunar

rather than downloading the drivers and manually installing them

its always best to use the drivers in the repo to avoid issues updating,
not knocking your method but if you can use the version in the repo that would be one less step you have to do

also if look at the man page for debootstrap it explains you can use a url

Code: 
debootstrap stretch ./stretch-chroot http://deb.debian.org/debian

what im wondering is if you can point to a url for lunar or manic
rather than installing jammy and upgrading

just thinking about making the steps easy to follow for other users

I disagree. I tell you from my experience : its hard that on the repo of Ubuntu you find the exact version of the drivers installed on FreeBSD.

jammy had the right version of the nvidia driver,
just want to check if the point release is the same on lunar
 
looking at debootstrap and using ubuntu urls


if you at this url in the dist directory you will see lunar and manic


which is a similar to the debian page


wonder if you could do something like this

Code: 
sudo mkdir -p /compat/ubuntu

and then use debootstrap with the url to install lunar or manic

Code: 
sudo debootstrap --arch=amd64 --no-check-gpg lunar /compat/ubuntu http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/

only one way to find out give it a go and see if it works
 
that fails no script in /usr/local/share/debootstrap/scripts/

so what if we take the jammy script and add lunar and mantic to it
rename it it mantic and stick the script in the debootstrap scripts directory

lets find out
 
my hunch was right

you can install lunar and mantic without installing jammy and upgrading

i copied the jammy script added lunar and mantic to it
and saved to 2 files lunar and mantic

make the scripts executable

Code: 
chmod +x lunar mantic

copy them to /usr/local/share/debootstrap/scripts

sudo cp lunar mantic /usr/local/share/debootstrap/scripts

install mantic

Code: 
sudo debootstrap --arch=amd64 --no-check-gpg mantic /compat/ubuntu http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/

the url may not be needed as thats in the script
so you could just do this

Code: 
sudo debootstrap --arch=amd64 --no-check-gpg mantic /compat/ubuntu

heres the updated script for lunar and mantic

check the release

Code: 
lsb_release -a

version

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 23.10
Release: 23.10
Codename: mantic
 
there is a driver mismatch on ubuntu mantic

freebsd nvidia version

535.146.02

ubuntu nvidia version

535.154.05

so looks like you have to manually download and install the nvidia drivers so they match

ziomario code

Code: 
TMPDIR=/home/user/TMP ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-535.146.02.run \
    --install-compat32-libs \
    --no-nvidia-modprobe --no-backup --no-kernel-module \
    --no-x-check --no-nouveau-check \
    --no-cc-version-check --no-kernel-module-source \
    --no-check-for-alternate-installs \
    --install-libglvnd --skip-depmod --no-systemd


ziomario what are the steps you took to install the drivers
so i can document them in a how to guide for other people to follow

i have a fresh mantic install

added new repos to /etc/apt/sources.list

Code: 
deb [trusted=yes] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ mantic main restricted universe multiverse
deb [trusted=yes] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ mantic-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb [trusted=yes] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ mantic-security main restricted universe multiverse

then updated and upgraded

Code: 
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

added my user and added them to needed groups
user set up in sudoers file so they can use sudo

did you install the drivers straight after a clean install
or did you install any packages before install the driver

this is linux and sometime the order you install packages matters
otherwise you get dependencies issues
 
ziomario said:
the nvidia installer will tell you what's missing
Click to expand...

gotcha
so after installing the drivers install the missing packages

whats the url you downloaded the drivers from

whats with this code below

why are you setting TMPDIR=/home/user/TMP
obviously that path doesnt exist

and shouldnt you use sudo to run the nvidia run script

Code: 
TMPDIR=/home/user/TMP ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-535.146.02.run \
    --install-compat32-libs \
    --no-nvidia-modprobe --no-backup --no-kernel-module \
    --no-x-check --no-nouveau-check \
    --no-cc-version-check --no-kernel-module-source \
    --no-check-for-alternate-installs \
    --install-libglvnd --skip-depmod --no-systemd

you know what the steps are
but its not going to be obvious to other people

we need to outline the exact steps so its easy to follow along for other people

1 - url to download the driver from

2 - running the nvidia run script

whats the TMPDIR for
shouldnt the nvidia run script be run with sudo

3 - installing the missing packages

then make a list of the missing packages that need to be installed
 
ziomario looking at this page on the nvidia site

CUDA Installation Guide for Linux — Installation Guide for Linux 13.0 documentation

The installation instructions for the CUDA Toolkit on Linux.
docs.nvidia.com docs.nvidia.com

mentions this

Before installing the NVIDIA driver on Linux,
some pre-installation steps are recommended to:

Verify the system has a CUDA-capable GPU
Verify the system is running a supported version of Linux
Verify the system has build tools such as make, gcc installed
Verify the system has correct Linux kernel headers

so you need to make sure build tools like make and gcc are installed
did you install linux kernel headers

do you remember what packages you installed

did you use page to install cuda afterwards

CUDA Installation Guide for Linux — Installation Guide for Linux 13.0 documentation

The installation instructions for the CUDA Toolkit on Linux.
docs.nvidia.com docs.nvidia.com

installed gcc with

Code: 
sudo apt install build-essential

re linux header files

running uname -r in the chroot

Code: 
uname -r

outputs

5.15.0

if you run

Code: 
apt search linux-headers

youll see the header files are for linux kernel 6

linux-headers-6.5.0-14/mantic-updates,mantic-security 6.5.0-14.14 all
Header files related to Linux kernel version 6.5.0
 
The nvidia drivers won't install if they miss something. And it reccomends also to install some components if it is important but not mandatory.
 
hi mate, can you confirm the steps

1 - nvidia install

i have the copied the NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-535.146.02.run
into /comat/ubuntu/home/djwilcox

and chrooted into ubuntu

Code: 
sudo chroot /compat/ubuntu /bin/bash

then switched to my user

Code: 
su - djwilcox

would this be the correct command to run
from your post but without the TMPDIR=/home/user/TMP

Code: 
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-535.146.02.run \
--install-compat32-libs \
--no-nvidia-modprobe --no-backup --no-kernel-module \
--no-x-check --no-nouveau-check \
--no-cc-version-check --no-kernel-module-source \
--no-check-for-alternate-installs \
--install-libglvnd --skip-depmod --no-systemd

then install any missing packages

2 - cuda

Can CUDA be installed on FreeBSD now ?

Hello to everyone. I've just read this thread : https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/cuda-and-nv-un-register-os-un-lock-user-pages/174678/13 where has been asked to modify the code of the freebsd driver to support CUDA. I read that it has been done. So,now can we install CUDA on FreeBSD by...
