When can I expect TrueNAS to add the latest drivers for 5 series cards? I was excited to be able to get my hands on a GTX 5060 TI 16 GB because it actually fits in my server case (the server rack has limited room). Didn’t occur to me that I couldn’t select which Nvidia Driver to install with TrueNAS. Right now I am on 25.04, and when I check the logs for nvidia: grep -i nvidia /var/log ...
This is to allow it to be updated separately from TrueNAS releases. There will be a UI selectable option available to install/update nvidia drivers before 24.10.0, but for now you can set it using midclt call -job docker.update ' {"nvidia": true}'.
Is it theoretically possible to update nvidia drivers to the current version on scale? Yes I know, it's not supported, not recommended, won't survive update...
From Nvidia via Videocardz: Support for Maxwell-, Pascal-, and Volta-based GPUs The release 580 series will be the last to support GPUs based on the Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta architectures. Currently, 25.04.1 supports the Nvidia driver 550.142 which were released last December, and do not support the 50xx series of GPUs.
NVIDIA driver failing to install Nvidia Drivers in Electric Eel Plex hw transcoding does not work after 24.10 upgrade Jellyfin - GPU Passthrough Question - TrueNAS 24.10.2.1 Setting Up NVIDIA GRID Drivers for vGPU Passthrough on TrueNAS SCALE Electric Eel fails to add GPU to Plex Setting Up NVIDIA GRID Drivers for vGPU Passthrough on TrueNAS SCALE
After each upgrade I will have to re-install the NVIDIA Drivers? I went from RC2 to 24.10.0.2 and the NVIDIA Drivers showed up as installed on that system after the update.
After the update truenas installs the nvidia driver again (don’t know why it doesn’t save the last installed version if you’re already on 24.10 and have it installed), which for me took around 10-15 minutes. After the nividia install finishes the docker service gets restarted. Maybe your truenas tried to install the driver, could not connect to the nvidia github and either stalled or ...
ALeXX December 19, 2024, 2:51pm 45 Hi there, After TrueNAS 24.10.1 update I have issues with Nvidia driver. I have A Lenovo ST250 server with Nvidia RTX A2000 graphics card. I tried to install the drivers from App/Configuration/Settings and unset/set the pool as others suggested but without any luck. Nvidia-smi command is showing
Important Edit - These instructions were written for resetting GPU/VFIO claims in TrueNAS SCALE 22.12 "Bluefin" and may not longer be valid for future versions, as GPU mapping may have changed. First off, check to see if your device is claimed by the vfio-pci driver by investigating the "Kernel driver in use" part of the lspci -v output:
Forgive me for my post, as I am new to TrueNAS Scale. I am on 24.10.1 On a poweredge r720, dual e5-2650 128gb ECC. I am attempting to just run jellyfin from the app installation in Scale and utilize hardware encoding using an Nvidia 2070. I have isolated the GPU in the advanced settings configuration. I was able to get nvidia-smi to finally execute (before running the midctl docker update it ...
Starting in 24.10, we are no longer including a default Nvidia driver. This is to allow it to be updated separately from TrueNAS releases. There will be a UI selectable option available to install/update nvidia drivers before 24.10.0, but for now you can set it using midclt call -job docker.update '{"nvidia": true}'.
+1 on the driver update, or at least the ability to use the non-DC drivers. I'm specing out a hard rotation to TrueNAS Scale to underpin all our dev clusters because of the rock solid zfs/storage management, reasonably fair VM support, and the only storage/virtualisation distro that isn't outwardly aggressive to running our own docker/portainer ...
