No, for some reason I can't get the update. It shows "up-to-date"

Just in case its not related to the plugin version I want to paste the output when I try to deploy the containers. it might help with troubleshoot:

Error response from daemon: failed to create task for container: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: error running prestart hook #0: exit status 1, stdout: , stderr: Auto-detected mode as 'legacy'
nvidia-container-cli: ldcache error: process /sbin/ldconfig failed with error code: 1

I'm having the same problem as of 7.2.5 update, driver pluigin 2026.03.19 shows as up to date.

@ich777 Could you please provide a direct link to the latest Unraid Nvidia plugin for a forced upgrade? Thank you

Have not updated to v7.2.5 as yet. May wait until any bugs are sorted. I notice in my plugins page it shows the nvidia driver as 2026.03.19 and status not available. It says i am running Nvidia Driver Version 595.71.05 and everything is working well. As far as 2025.05.01 i cannot see that...any pointers to where or how i can update

Please wait until further notice since the blame is on me for the driver not working on 7.2.5

However the build has been already been triggered and I will update this post when it's done.

Driver build is done for 7.2.5!

Please do the following depending if you are already on 7.2.5 or not:

• Check for Plugin updates on the Plugins page within Unraid and update the plugin if you haven't done so already.

• When you are already on 7.2.5 go to the Plugin page again and click Update & Download, this should give you a checksum error and trigger a new download from the driver package

• When you are still on 7.2.4 just trigger the upgrade, that should download the correct driver package

Reboot after doing the steps above.

 Plugins page shows up to date. I tried updating through Community Applications and got:

plugin: updating: nvidia-driver.plg
Executing hook script: CA_preHook
Clearing Community Applications plugin cache
Executing hook script: pre_plugin_checks
plugin: XML file doesn't exist or xml parse error
Executing hook script: CA_postHook
Executing hook script: post_plugin_checks

Fixed.

You probably have to wait a few minutes.

thanks @ich777 Update is there waiting. Will need to wait for immich to finish processing then will update. I am still V7.2.4 for the moment

confirmed fix on 2026.05.01 thank for the quick fix.

First time seeing pending on the plugin tab.
I'm not really sure how to update now as the "Update & Download" returns a successful checksum:

Also got CHECKSUM OK, but after updating the plugin my containers started correctly.

that's happen to me as well
1.remove and reboot
2.install nvidia driver plugin, disable docker and enable docker
worked for me!

And another reboot.... it automatically installs the latest driver. I can't use that....

maybe gtx 1060 end of life? so you would stuck on GPU 580.159.03

Yeah but the issue is that it automatically installs the latest driver and by downgrading I'm forced to reboot 😅

Anyway... It works now. Thank you everyone

Maybe time to buy a new gpu. 😜

With these prices 😭

Would be funny if Nvidia said, yeah 580.x is now also deprecated. 🤪

But that won't happen, at least I think.

Update / findings concerning "failed to acquire modesetting permission issue" in the context of steam-headless and consecutive xorg, xvnc and sunshine crashloop:

After further testing and updating the plugin/driver to latest open source, the original "Failed to acquire modesetting permission" issue appears to be related to the NVIDIA 595 driver branch and the host GUI / DRM modesetting state, not simply a Docker or container configuration mistake.

before:
NVIDIA(GPU-0): Failed to acquire modesetting permission
xorg FATAL
Sunshine Found [0] outputs

after:
xorg RUNNING
DISPLAY :55 OK
Sunshine Found [1] outputs
Detected display: HDMI-0 connected: true
Found H.264 encoder: h264_nvenc
Found HEVC encoder: hevc_nvenc
Found AV1 encoder: av1_nvenc

There is now a separate second issue in the container stack: a crash/restart loop related to Sunshine virtual input devices and /dev/input/event* handling. That appears to be separate from the original NVIDIA modesetting problem. And ich77, you already wondered about the many "input devices" related lines with in my syslog, so another independent issue I try to adress at the steam-headless support forum and github respectively. Thank you so much for your work!

For clarity reasons i can say that the new version works as expected with v7.2.4. Update driver package and restarted server, all working, no issues with install or update..

Note I have not updated to v7.2.5 as of yet

I had the same issue with my P2000. Plugin has a bug where on upgrading the UnRaid from 7.2.4 to 7.2.5 it installed the latest driver that is incompatible with my GPU even though I had manually selected the 580 driver branch. Had to reboot the server 2 times after fixing this. Now it is okay though.

Cheers!

Despite updating to the latest plugin and swapping the driver, I'm still having issues.

Troubleshooting tried so far:

• Update plugin and reboot

• Upgrade driver (to 595) and reboot

• Uninstall driver, reboot, install driver, reboot

• Downgrade driver (to 580) and reboot
  

  I'm using an RTX 2000 Ada. The GPU ID is properly configured in my Plex and Tdarr dockers, but the GPU isn't able to be used.

Is there something obvious that I'm missing that would have been thrown out of whack with the latest unraid and driver updates? Anyone else having this experience?

No, everything seems fine.

With your RTX card, you should definitely use the latest driver.
