    This driver does not compile currently because of this (last line from the changelog), have to contact Nvidia about that:

    Updated nvidia.ko to load even if no supported NVIDIA GPUs are present when an NVIDIA NVSwitch device is detected in the system. Previously, nvidia.ko would fail to load into the kernel if no supported GPUs were present.

     

    Also keep in mind this is a beta driver.

     

    You have to give me a few days to solve this.

    No rush, the do not speak of patch is always a few days behind drivers anyway ;)

    I will try to reflash my card (Mellanox Connect X3) and will see if the same happens to me and report back.

     

    Where you able to flash this exact card in the past or did you flashed other cards?

     

    Do you use this command: 'mstflint -d 01:00.0 -i *.bin burn' with the asterisk or do you specify the full filename?

     

    EDIT: Flash went fine without any error:

    mstflint -d 01:00.0 -i fw-ConnectX3-rel-2_42_5000-MCX311A-XCA_Ax-FlexBoot-3.4.752.bin burn
    
        Current FW version on flash:  2.42.5000
        New FW version:               2.42.5000
    
        Note: The new FW version is the same as the current FW version on flash.
    
     Do you want to continue ? (y/n) [n] : y
    
    Burn process will not be failsafe. No checks will be performed.
    ALL flash, including the Invariant Sector will be overwritten.
    If this process fails, computer may remain in an inoperable state.
    
     Do you want to continue ? (y/n) [n] : y
    Burning FS2 FW image without signatures - OK  
    Restoring signature                     - OK

     

    Also removed the boot ROM after that:

    mstflint -d 01:00.0 --allow_rom_change drom
    
    -I- Preparing to remove ROM ...
    Removing ROM image    - OK  
    Restoring signature  - OK

     

    Same errors with bin name

     

    -W- DMA burning is not supported due to BME is unset (Bus Master Enable).
    FSMST_INITIALIZE -   OK
    Writing Boot image component -   OK
    -E- Burning FS3 image failed: Unexpected state

    I use the asterisk

     

    I will try using the full name.

    You mean the Vulkan 1.2 API where the others only have 1.0 and 1.1?

     

    But do you really think it's usefull on Unraid?

     

    Anyways, I will not support that branch because it's not even a "real" branch because it's nowhere listed which versions numbers these drivers with the new API are and also I don't think that game developers will use Unraid as a platform to test such things or even develop games for the new API.

    The next thing is I don't have a way to read the version numbers from anywhere automated which are Vulkan DEV drivers...

     

    Also think twice about it, the users now can choose between 3 or better speaking 2 different branches and you can also choose between 8 recent driver versions, I will not bloat the plugin page anymore especially with DEV drivers...

     

    Oh no... :/

    No worries, I thought I would ask.

    Is this a new card or where did you buy it?

    I came across such messages in the past and this seems like it's been a counterfeit card, can you post a picture of the card itself?

    Also here is a reference from Nvidia: Click

    (From the audio controller identifier it looks more like a GTX550Ti)

     

    I'm maybe wrong about that but isn't Vulkan built into every driver from 455.50.14 upwards on Linux?

     

    EDIT: What would be the benefit on Unraid? Also keep in mind that Nvidia defines only the Production Branch and the New Feature Branch even on their download page:

    grafik.png.604ab8b461042886c73a4d5d235fabde.png

     

    Vulkan branch has latest extensions NOT in the branches on consumer site.

     

    It's meant for people testing upcoming Vulkan versions.

     

    I don't use it, but some may find it useful.

    Don't know if you have seen that:

    grafik.png.97815101856438d76487c34b41f5a409.png

     

    They also don't list it on their download server so the automatic build script won't trigger and I can't build it when the download isn't available... :D

    Ugh I have a time machine.

     

    I will dial it back down 🙂
