please see attached unraid01-diagnostics-20211008-1243.zip

So im finally back at home last week and i rebooted my server but it failed to boot up. It got stuck at below. I had to remove the intel gpu top plugin manually from the thumbdrive then only i can boot to unraid.

Ok sounds like i have to reboot my Unraid when im back at home, im just worry that it will fail to boot, especially when im at the middle of the ocean. Anyway thank you sir, i'll update you when im back at home.

On the other note i just found out Intel-GPU-Top new 2021.06.15 version so i upgraded to it just few minutes ago. Do i have to reboot my Unraid now for it to take effect ?

Intel-GPU-Top is always installed and enabled until now. No issue to boot Unraid with it. I also have no i915 file, as i mentioned i cant boot unraid with it so i had to remove it.

A requested Below is my mobo and CPU I was using Intel NUC8i3BEH with intel-gpu-top , and hardware transcoding working without issue (Thanks to you sir). So recently i build a new system with above mobo and CPU and transfer my unraid USB and drives over, and i created file under /boot/config/modprobe.d called i915.conf and paste the code options i915 force_probe=4c8a options i915 enable_guc=2 , but when i boot up my system, it stop at "switching to inteldrmfb from efi vga" and will just stuck there forever I have to turn off my system, take out the USB boot drive and access it from my laptop and remove the i915.conf and i'm able to boot my unraid without issue (but still not getting hardware acceleration). Tested many times but still getting same issue. From the USB folder, i can see that im booting from UEFI.

Im aware of intel-gpu-top and i installed it but unfortunately im still not able to use my iGPU

Looks like im having driver issue ? root@unraid01:~# modprobe -c | grep force_probe root@unraid01:~# dmesg | grep i915 [ 31.926009] i915 0000:00:02.0: Your graphics device 4c8a is not properly supported by the driver in this kernel version. To force driver probe anyway, use i915.force_probe=4c8a root@unraid01:~# modprobe -n i915 force_probe=4c8a root@unraid01:~# dmesg | grep i915 [ 31.926009] i915 0000:00:02.0: Your graphics device 4c8a is not properly supported by the driver in this kernel version. To force driver probe anyway, use i915.force_probe=4c8a

Today i update to latest BIOS firmware version May 2021 from Gigabyte website, but still having the same issue.

I'm not getting any error output when i ran the command, same goes in syslog.

I've look in my BIOS option (im using Gigabyte H470I AORUS PRO AX), there's only option to disable/enable iGPU and it's currently enable root@unraid01:~# modprobe -n i915 root@unraid01:~# modprobe -n i915 force_probe=4c8a root@unraid01:~# /dev/dri bash: /dev/dri: No such file or directory

Yes i did that, still the same.

Update: i have to remove the thumbdrive and plug in to my laptop and manually remove i915.conf file, then i am able to boot to unraid. Appreciate someone that can advise me as i really need hardware transcoding to work.

Hi i really need help. I'm using Intel i5-11500 and I've done as instructed but unraid will not boot and will get stuck at "switching to inteldrmfb from efi vga" and will just stuck there forever
