Why does Nvidia hate linux?
(lemmy.ml)
So I've been trying to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers on my homelab so I can get my fine ass art generated using Automatic1111 & Stable diffusion. I installed the Nvidia 510 server drivers, everything seems fine, then when I reboot, nothing. WTF Nvidia, why you gotta break X? Why is x even needed on a server driver. What's your problem Nvidia!
I've had a bunch of issues with my GTX 1080 before I switched to an AMD RX 5700 XT. I love it, but I recently put the 1080 back in use for a headless game streaming server for my brother. It's been working really well, handling both rendering and encoding at 1080p without issue, so I guess I've arrived at the same conclusion. They don't really care about desktop usage, but once you're not directly interacting with a display server on an Nvidia GPU, it's fine.
