Guys, I have been fighting with this problem for 7-8 days now, while studying all the Incus/LXD forum threads and trying various things.
Basically, this problem is completely crazy. I have the same version of NVIDIA-drivers (580.95.05
) on both
- The host (Gentoo Linux - 6.1.140)
- The container (Arch Linux)
What happens is, when I have the drivers installed only on the host and not in the container, some 3D acceleration works in the container (like glxinfo and glxgears, but not vulkaninfo).
But when I install the same version of NVIDIA drivers (from the same file, I literally fetched it from my local host’s Gentoo cache), glxinfo and glxhears stop working, zero acceleration. Just 2D graphics.
Bah, even when I remove some file that is part of the drivers (/usr/lib/libGLX_nvidia.so or similar) from container, glxinfo and glxgears work again.
Generic 2D GUI apps like Discord or Firefox work always, doesn’t matter which option I use.
Do you have any idea what could be wrong here, guys? I am really tired to the point of dying here.
