Your device is supported:

$ nvidia-detect -l | grep -i 1cb2
[10de:1cb2] NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL [Quadro P600]

Support was added in the 375.39 NVIDIA driver. I assume the driver works as
expected for you?

Yes it works perfectly fine.

If you are able to offer any more clues, please feel free to open a bug
report on elrepo.org/bugs for us to track. Happy to help if I can.


I created a bugreport: http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=839


Thank you.

    # lspci | grep VGA
    00:1f.5 Non-VGA unclassified device: Intel Corporation Device a2a4
    21:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1cb2 (rev a1

    # lspci -n | egrep '00:1f.5|21:00.0'
    00:1f.5 0000: 8086:a2a4
    21:00.0 0300: 10de:1cb2 (rev a1)

This part makes me wander though, if I'm correct the second column in
the "lspci -n" output seems to be the class identification. If you
look at the first line of the lcpi output, lspci (or the kernel?)
doesn't seem to recognize the class of some other Intel device, that
probably has nothing to do with the nvidia device at all. It's numeric
class identification seems to be "0000" though (for unclassified?)

Could it be that in the piece of code below (from nvidia-detect), the
device_class is zero because of that line, and nvidia-detect exits?

if (!dev->device_class) {
     fprintf(stderr, "Error getting device_class\n");
     ret = -1;
     goto exit;
}


Yes, I totally missed that in your posted output earlier. You are correct, I never anticipated a device class of zero (unclassified device) when I wrote that error checking code, and indeed that is what is causing the error to be triggered. So it's a bug in the error checking code, nice catch!

Anyway, I've fixed it and am just waiting for our build systems to be available to rebuild and push a release for you (will be later today). I'll update the bug report once that is done, and perhaps you could then confirm it's working as expected for you.

Thanks again for the catch.

Phil
