GPU containers do not start

LXD

Hi, my snaps refreshed today, currently lxd is at 5.12-3564c08 rev 24615 in latest/candidate. There is some problem again with gpu enabled containers. At start I’m getting errors like

What OS are you running on the host?

LXD 5.12 (currently in candidate) is when we’ll transition from core20 (Ubuntu 20.04) to core22 (Ubuntu 22.04) as the base for the snap. In our tests, we’ve not seen any problem with NVIDIA runtime for our GPUs but our tests use an Ubuntu 22.04 host system.

As the NVIDIA runtime logic needs to load some libraries from your host system, it’s not impossible that this now breaks with older distros.

I have 20.04.5 and 470.161.03 NVidia driver.

We’ll have to test with 20.04, but I suspect that may be the issue…

I get the same issue. do you solved it?
