Description Phoenix 2024-04-11 11:46:43 UTC

Hello.

Guess some know bugs on Wayland related to NVidia drivers. And it seems partical reason revealed.

Since it lagged at times, took a root execution of monitoring app called "Resources" to see root processes as well and here we instantly get an error reported:

SapphirePro:/ # resources
libEGL warning: MESA-LOADER: failed to open nouveau: /usr/lib64/dri/nouveau_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (search paths /usr/lib64/dri, suffix _dri)

Why MESA used and more over Nouveau? It's blacklisted in modprobe and proprietary nvidia driver used instead. Since that error thrown, but all comes to place, all that blinking etc was common for nouveau, which never succeeded to get even close to nvidia. So build must get unlinked from nouveau completely as it interferes on Wayland nvidia's driver and wrong drivers attempted to be used.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed x86_64, all latest updates to present time.

PS. maybe reported to incorrect section, but no idea where it normally should go to. Just need to be able to fully offload nouveau and prefferably have an option to unistall it completely on demand.

This behaviour looks weird to me.

With this error message I'm pretty sure Mesa's OpenGL driver lib is being used, which should not happen with NVIDIA proprietary user space installed.

What's the output of 

  glxinfo -B

How did you install the nvidia driver? package-wise or via the shell script archive (.run file)? Please provide the result of running 

  nvidia-bugreport.sh

Package-wise. Provide the otuput of running

  rpm -qa | grep nvidia

Looks like the reporter lost interest into that. No wonder when we need 5 weeks for reassigning such an issue to the right people. :-( Closing as NORESPONSIVE. Feel free to reopen if/once you can give the requested feedback. Thanks.
