This.

All GTX 10 und 9 series are now legacy. All Turing based cards, including GTX16 series should work just fine bisides the point that the driver seems pretty unstable with the newer driver releases.

Don't suppose you could update the Open Source Driver to "590.44.01" (source: https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules/releases/tag/590.44.01) could ya?

Also, been getting Out of Memory errors recently with the error referencing Nvidia.server-diagnostics-20251211-0351.zip

This refers to Kernel Memory not strictly speaking RAM.

Please make sure that you've enabled Above 4G Decoding and Resizable BAR Support in your BIOS.

Please also make sure that you are on the latest BIOS version available, most of the times this points to firmware related issue.

Not much that I can do about, you'll find plenty of these errors on the Nvidia Developer forums and most of the times this happens to users on AMD platforms, please maybe report that on the Nvidia Developer forums since this is directly related to the driver.

I could, but usually I compile the drivers once when a Unraid version is released, are there any new features that you need or why do you need the newer driver?

I was hoping it would fix some of those memory errors, I just told the Fix Comon Problems plugin to igneore the errors, I've got 256 GB of RAM so I know I'm not running out of memeory.

I've also got above 4G decoding and Resizable Bar enabled.

I've also got this as an option, it's Disable right now.

Not sure if that would help or not.

this is what I get before running jellyfin

I turned it on, seems to have helped, will test for a bit, don't know if it will cause any performance issues or not.

EDIT: it defaulted to Disabled, Changed it to Enabled.

As said that has nothing to do with System Memory, that refers to Kernel Memory, so to speak reserved memory for the Kernel in System Memory and the message is actually produced by the Nvidia Driver, so nothing that I could do about.

Try it.

As another test, please post nvidia-persistenced in your go file and execute it once (so that you don't have to reboot).

Thanks, but I just checked and it seems like it’s still supported, but the plugin is using the beta version?

If you have selected "latest" on the plugins settings page, then yes, you will be on the beta driver because latest means always the latest available driver version, which not always must mean that you are on a Beta driver, but currently Beta is the latest available driver.

You know that the plugin has a settings page right?

Nope, I don't accept any PMs, there is usually nothing you have to hide in that file.

Please drag the Diagnostics file into the textbox here on the forums.

If possible, please also pull diagnostics when the error occurs.

From the Diagnostics I don't see anything wrong. You can try to add nvidia-persistenced to your go file, make sure that you are on the latest BIOS version, make sure that Above 4G Decoding and Resizable BAR Support is enabled.

Sorry — I’m not sure how to update the server to the latest BIOS version, or how to check whether Above 4G Decoding and Resizable BAR support are enabled.

I also don’t know what nvidia-persistenced is, or where the go file is located but I think you may mean its in my BIOS setting so going to have a look now..

When I searched on Google, this video showed up, and I’m watching it now.

I managed to make the error appear again. Also, when I play videos, they’re using my CPU instead of my GPU…

You have to go into the BIOS for that and check the settings.

For the BIOS update you have to check your Motherboards/Systems manufacturers website.

Just put the line:

nvidia-persistenced

at the end of the file /boot/config/go and reboot afterwards.

The video is a good source of information.

Seems to be a PCI related issue, I would strongly recommend that you do the above steps.

ok here is my setting for PCI-E in the bios.

what I can see my bios is BIOS_Acer_P08

e

and from this page its the only one.

Okay, seems pretty old but you might be out of luck with the BIOS updates, seems this machine is deprecated from the manufacturer.

Seems your machine doesn't support either of these options.

Not exactly but it is enough if you issue it once after a reboot.

May I ask if this is a new issue or a new installation or even a new GPU or a new installation from Unraid?
Most of the times it's a hardware incompatibility issue or a wrong set setting in the BIOS, but I don't think it's the latter in your case.

Unraid should have a file explorer where you can edit files directly in the WebUI.

I used Unraid back in the day, then I started going down the TrueNAS path. But I saw the light and came back. I’ve been building my new Unraid stack over the last four or five days.

Pairing old hardware (you System) with relatively new Hardware GTX16 series or RTX series is most of the times a bad idea and will lead to potential issues like you are experiencing.

file mangager but no way to get into the USB (boot drive) that I can see.

I also got the google coral edgetpu to get working also, think it was working on the truenas.

at this time I have to wait till next year to buy and new upgrades (new motherboard)

Yeah, that should work.

Sorry, but most of the times it has to do with hardware incompatibility, the GTX16 series was always a bit of hit and miss, maybe look out for something like a Nvidia T400 4GB (even the 2GB version should work fine) and try if this card works.

ok thanks I will look into doing something in the new year if everything with money works out for me.

the nvidia-persistenced seems like th cpu is alot more carma now but seems lik the GPU is still not doing anything.

have done another diagnostic when playing an movie on jellyfin, what do you think? is it fix or its the best its going to get?

I don't know if that will definitely help but a few users reported that this helped, however that looks okay.

Sorry, you have to ask that on the container side of things however it looks like you don't do transcoding if you are currently playing a file.

Please also note, if audio transcoding is needed, this is done on the CPU not on the GPU.
