Bonjour,
I am wondering why fedora packagers limit the capabilities of
softwares:
I installed blender from fedora repo (f34) version 2.93.5. It is
impossible to enable the graphical acceleration of my graphic card
(nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti).
I went to blender official site and got the same version of blender
and.... graphical acceleration is set without any problem.
Why this difference?
Which Nvidia driver are you using? The Nouveau driver almost certainly
doesn't support this feature. The non-free binary Nvidia one might do
so (I haven't checked) but that's not an official Fedora package. You
need to get it from RPMfusion.
I can confirm the experience of the OP.
I'm using the rpmfusion nvidia packages which includes
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda-470.74-1.fc34.x86_64
The blender from the fedora repos doesn't detect a capable GPU.
But blender downloaded from the blender site does.
It shows:
CUDA - NVIDIA Geforce GTX 660(Display)

On Facebook it is called Vaguebooking.
