Native Nvidia Optimus and Fedora 19

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Has anyone tried to get native Optimus running on a Fedora 19 box? When I attempt it, I get a blank black screen. I posted on the Nvidia forums, but no one has replied yet and I’m getting anxious ;-)

 

The general consensus is that the kernel must be 3.9 or higher, and I am running 3.9.9-302. The Nvidia readme indicates CONFIG_DRM has to be enabled and the following driver interfaces present:

 

drm_gem_prime_export

drm_gem_prime_import

gem_prime_pin

gem_prime_get_sg_table

gem_prime_import_sg_table

gem_prime_vmap

gem_prime_vunmap

 

I have verified that CONFIG_DRM is enabled within the kernel as a module and it’s loaded, but when I attempted to verify the list of module symbols, I only found two (the ones in bold).

 

The way I determined this information was through:

`cat /boot/config-3.9.9-302.fc19.x86_64 | grep CONFIG_DRM`

`cat /lib/modules/3.9.9-302.fc19.x86_64/modules.symbols | grep gem_prime`

 

Am I missing something or does it appear that F19 kernel is missing vital parts for native Nvidia Optimus support?

 

For those more interested, here is the post on the nvidia forums.
