Just updated from Nvidia 410.73 to 410.78 drivers. 410.73 ran fine. Now 410.78 throws an error when trying to use nvidia-settings.



root@Serenity:/home/keith/Desktop# /usr/bin/nvidia-settings
libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate

(nvidia-settings:3214): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 16:49:45.561: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate
** Message: 16:49:46.239: PRIME: No offloading required. Abort
** Message: 16:49:46.239: PRIME: is it supported? no
^C
root@Serenity:/home/keith/Desktop#


So what has gone wrong here?

  • Yes several times. Each time I tried to use nvidia-settings for setting my clocks and fan speeds, the command were not accepted.

  • I then tried to revert to 396 drivers and hit the same problem. So I backed out of the Nvidia drivers entirely and reverted to base Nouveau drivers. Then went back to 410.78 drivers as the ppa doesn't offer the 410.73 release anymore. I can now actually invoke the nvidia-settings parameters and they are at least accepted. Just have a benign libEGL failed to authenticate error still.

  • I can't find any mention of this new error with this driver on the Ubuntu forums. I shot an email off to one of the ppa maintainers and hope to hear something from him eventually.

  • I just use the normal Additional Drivers tab installation in the Software Updater to install the drivers. Been doing it since 390 with no issues. I tried the 415.13 drivers when they were released but they were MUCH slower than the 410.73 drivers so I reverted. I use the Nvidia drivers for distributed processing. No graphics or gaming. Been running with no issues on Nvidia ppa drivers for a year. It was just this last minor update that things went wrong.

  • No I don't normally just invoke nvidia-settings without parameters. I just did that for a quick test to see if the bug was still there after all the downgrades/upgrades. The very first attempt to run my nvidia-settings script after installing the 410.78 drivers failed on every parameter call with the libEGL failed to authenticate error. Why I had to start looking for the reason for the change in the new driver that I had never had any problem with before on earlier drivers. So I had to jump through hoops to get a working system again.
