[Bug 1758243] Re: bumblebee needs configuration changes to work with nvidia-driver-390 and libglvnd0

 

Update: both optirun and primusrun crash when trying to load openGL.

They work as expected for non-opengl apps:
('optirun screenfetch' and 'primusrun screenfetch' both work and show the GPU correctly!)

-----------------------------
Output of 'optirun glxgears':
-----------------------------
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  155 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  11 (X_GLXSwapBuffers)
  Serial number of failed request:  37
  Current serial number in output stream:  38
primus: warning: dropping a frame to avoid deadlock
primus: warning: timeout waiting for display worker
terminate called without an active exception

-----------------------------
Output of primusrun glxgears:
-----------------------------
/usr/bin/primusrun: line 41: warning: command substitution: ignored null byte in input
primus: fatal: failed to load any of the libraries: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This happens even after installing the full nvidia-driver-390 package
(which includes nvidia-prime) and repeating all the steps mentioned in
post #1.

Which package provides this openGL library and where is it located? Am I
missing a symlink or a path?

Title:
  bumblebee needs configuration changes to work with nvidia-driver-390
  and libglvnd0

Status in bumblebee package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  bumblebee fails to work in Ubuntu 18.04 with nvidia-driver-390 unless
  these configuration changes are made:

  1. For optirun to work, /etc/bumblebee/bumblebee.conf needs two
  library paths changed (because of the changes for GLVND):

  [driver-nvidia]
  LibraryPath=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
  XorgModulePath=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/nvidia/xorg,/usr/lib/xorg/modules,/usr/lib/xorg/modules/input

  With these changes, optirun works correctly on my laptop (using the
  primus bridge) but primusrun still fails.

  2. For power management to work (ie turning the nvidia card off whilst
  not in use), the nouveau and nvidia modules need blacklisting so they
  don't load on boot, and nvidia_drm and nvidia_modeset need aliasing to
  off so they never load. Otherwise, nvidia_drm attaches to
  drm_kms_helper and then bumblebee can't unload the nvidia module and
  turn off the card. This configuration file in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-
  bl.conf works for me:

  blacklist nouveau
  blacklist nvidia
  blacklist nvidia_drm
  blacklist nvidia_modeset
  alias nouveau off
  alias nvidia_drm off
  alias nvidia_modeset off

  (The first two lines are already in bumblebee.conf. I found I also had
  to alias nouveau to off because gdm?/mutter? so desperately wants to
  load it.)

  
  Update: aliasing nouveau to off doesn't stop the nvidia-fallback service from loading the nouveau module, so if nouveau is still loading, you could try running this command:

  
  systemctl disable nvidia-fallback.service

  
  You'll need to reboot because nouveau is already loaded, but the change should be permanent unless something else re-enables the nvidia-fallback service.
