Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
if even displaying the console login failed, then the hole display |
| 4 |
system has gone nuts...but since the boot process as such (that is: |
| 5 |
the bios prompt right after POSTing) is visible, I would say, that |
| 6 |
there is no physical problem (that is: cable connected to port 2 of |
| 7 |
the monitor while the monitor is switched to port 1 and such). |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I would try this: |
| 10 |
Boot your PC, ssh into the PC and download the according |
| 11 |
nvidia-drivers directly from NVIDIA of the same version. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
quickpkg the installed drivers and remove them |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Check whether /usr/src/linux links to the kernel |
| 16 |
sources of the kernel version you are booting. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Install the NVIDIA-drivers you have downloaded. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Reboot. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Background: |
| 23 |
The portage package does not install nvidia-drivers correctly - |
| 24 |
in my case, X and such works fine but RTX/Optix which is used |
| 25 |
by Blender was defunc. After installing the original package |
| 26 |
and masked the one which came with portage everything works |
| 27 |
fine. |

Cheers! |
