Yeah, I can hear the frustration and weariness in your writing. However I know you are up to fixing this.

One additional experiment you can do, and I suspect Kubuntu passes every time, is boot the machine with the monitor plugged into each port one at a time. Do complete power downs between each boot. If Kubuntu comes up it will really tell you a stable, tested OS has solved these problems. If it doesn't then that's good info also.

I think possibly you purchased a Quadro adapter? I don't know how popular those are amongst this crowd but they have been very popular in business settings. That might make a bigger difference in terms of the nvidia driver vs the Open Source one.

Good luck with your machine,
Mark


I admit, I'm thinking about unplugging the thing and sticking it in the closet.  If nothing else, I'm tired of walking around this huge thing.  I was hoping to have switched long ago.  Usually, I look forward and even get excited to build a new rig.  This time, with the lacking slots of the original mobo and having to go way down power wise, I just want to make sure I have a working computer if something happens to my main rig.  There's not a whole lot to get excited about.  Having it not work, well, that doesn't help.  Poor Michael is trying to help but this thing is weird.  With every reboot, it does something differently. 

On the Kubuntu test.  I started with what the bracket shows as port 1.  I then went through each port until I got to port 4.  I rebooted in between each switch.  Even unplugged the monitor.  It worked every time.  During the booting of the image tho, there was several seconds where the screen went weird.  It had these horizontal lines on it that looked like stair steps.  I've seen this type of thing on other boot media even with my main rig and the NAS box.  It's like the image is in the process of loading drivers or something.  Anyway, once it came up tho, rock solid. 

I checked the nvidia website three times now.  Still, I wonder, am I using the wrong driver?  Would the wrong driver even load without a nasty message somewhere that is obvious?  The Nvidia website shows this:


Version:                     550.90.07
Release Date:             2024.6.4
Operating System:     Linux 64-bit
Language:                 English (US)
File Size:                   293.33 MB

I tried that series and the earlier version as well.  Hard to believe that both versions would fail the same way due to a bug.  If someone wants to double check, Nvidia Quadro P1000 is the info.  Even if the selection tool is wrong, it shows up under supported products, for both desktops and laptops. 

I may try to the Nouveau driver thing again.  Instead of building it into the kernel, I may try the tree version.  Maybe it will work better than the one in the kernel.  One can hope.  Right now, I'm trying to sort through a massive update on my main rig.  Something broke eix.  o_O  I managed to update the config files.  Broke my prompt tho.  I need a hammer.  :/
