fred_hello guys18:24
fred_does anyone fancy helping me with drivers for my graphics card?18:25
fred_when i run 'sudo lshw -C display' i get:18:42
fred_description: VGA compatible controller18:42
fred_       product: NVIDIA Corporation18:42
fred_       vendor: NVIDIA Corporation18:42
fred_       physical id: 018:42
fred_       bus info: pci@0000:06:00.018:42
fred_       version: a118:42
fred_       width: 64 bits18:42
fred_       clock: 33MHz18:42
fred_but there is no model number18:42
fred_I know its a rtx 305018:42
fred_i let ubuntu install drivers during installation and blender does 'see' the card, but when i render its only using the CPU18:43
fred_i dtried other drivers but that broke the system (no boot) so i had to redo the install :(18:44
fred_According to system profiler is had loaded the 2507 device driver, and i dont know if its the correct one18:48
fred_neofetch lists the card as:18:53
fred_GPU: NVIDIA 06:00.0 NVIDIA Corporation Device 2507 18:53
fred_glxinfo -B does find it18:55
fred_OpenGL renderer string: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050/PCIe/SSE218:56
fred_and from there it look like the correct driver was loaded (535)18:56
fred_OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 535.86.0518:56
fred_but, again, i go to blender and try to select GPU for render and it goes gray and dumps it on CPU :(18:57
fred_any help appreciated18:57
