Sorry, meant 2080 Ti
You have so many video cards

Have you tried

apt install firmware-realtek

Post by **Rocky** » Mon May 17, 2021 8:04 pm

In windows was using the motherboard Realtek crap. Can't get that working with Debian. I need to know of a card that will function well with Debian, without me having to divulge all my acorn caches. Ya know?

This might help but wait for DJ to reply

Maybe DJ can suggest a linux-compatible sound card as I have had it up to here with this Realtek garbage. Creative SoundBlaster?

No real magic here, Realtek cards should be supported on any distro.
Maybe you will have to configure output (if few detected), I remember I had such issue on some old Mainboard and 5.1 Realtek card.

Sound is working. Not sure what happened but I just plugged the speakers into the mobo line out and it worked, whereas it did not before (or did I have the wrong jack

). I suppose the nVidia driver install must have done something. Whatever, all's well that ends well. It's great to have a fully usable linux box.

On to NVDec! Oy, lots of dependencies.

Wanna buy my 8800 real cheap? You can start an nVidia museum.

Upgrading to the 9600GT was heaven:

Looks like the 3090 is good for at least the rest of this year:

The comments are amusing and informative.

Successfully installed the CUDA toolkit (required GL and GLU libraries as well as the developer files and several non-obvious environment variable changes). Successfully ran the CUDA nbody sample application as root. I need to get things working for my non-root login. Then everything should be good to go for the NVDec install. First, I'll make a system backup to stabilize this milestone.

Let me say this: I understand why linux is not taking off for "normal" users.

I'll sell you my 3090 for $5000. Better than some prices on ebay.

Actually, linux is growing on me, but I'm not a "normal" user.

Got CUDA working on my non-root account.

Not paying ebay prices, I'll wait

but I'm not a "normal" user.

Rocky, are you saying you are not normal :belly-laugh:

Post by **Rocky** » Wed May 19, 2021 4:17 pm

Supernormal not subnormal.

I can accept that

Coming from you it means a lot! I'm a very industrious squirrel. For example, during last year's apple harvest (that's almost four times my weight):

You're looking a little skinny in that photo

Thank you! You are very kind.

Life smacked me hard last night. Still reeling. I did watch some GTC speeches. Quite amazing progress. Oh, and I downloaded the Video SDK. Swept up the litter and now off to the nest.

Again, ran into lots of dependencies and non-obvious environment variable settings. Definitely not for your average moose!

Next, I will try to bring up DG's stripped down decoder that served as the basis for all the CUVID work. That will prove that everything is in place to bring up DGSource(). We'll also need to install Avisynth+ and Vapoursynth. But first, it's backup time.

It's encouraging that things have gone so well.

Nice.
Installing VS is easy thing actually, as well as Avisynth+ on Linux. VS uses generic "./configure && make" solution while Avs+ is a CMake project.

Would it be possible to join up all the great hints, like installing AVS+ and VPY, for future reference

Assuming that was directed at DJ. If so, I second that motion.

If it was directed at moi, I'll post instructions after I figure it out.

Vapoursynth

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/vapoursynth/vapoursynth.git
cd ./vapoursynth
git clone https://github.com/sekrit-twc/zimg.git --branch v3.0
./autogen.sh
(if you want to build ffms2 plugin, make sure ffmpeg stuff is installed before next step)
pip3 install -r python-requirements.txt
./configure --enable-pic
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install

Avisynth

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/AviSynth/AviSynthPlus.git
cd ./AviSynthPlus
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..  
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install

Actually meant for Rocky, but thank you DJATOM

Boy, would the Linux sub-forum be handy about now

Post by **Rocky** » Fri May 21, 2021 8:23 pm

Yes, indeed, thank you DJ!

Sherman is missing in action. I'll send a PM to Mr Peabody. He keeps Sherman on a pretty short leash.
