Nicholas Ralabate Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) I'm trying to get a RTX 2080Ti up and running on Centos7, but after installation X doesn't start and when I switch to console to log in I see a "garbled" screen. I am running latest 450.80.02 driver, and I also tried updating from CentOS 7.7 to 7.8 but it still doesn't work. In my dmesg I see a few lines about "RmInitAdapter Failed" which I'm pretty sure means bad driver. I think my next approach will be slowly roll back driver versions, but I wanted to check here since RTX + CentOS seems like a pretty standard combination.

Secretspaces Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Have you installed the driver through kmod? I have it running on CentOS 7, not sure about the driver version. But doing a new install on CentOS 8 failed for now, I read on another forum there is an issue with the kmod package. Cheers Stefan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you had older card working on that system or it's a brand new install? We use RTX2080Ti here with CenOS7.6 (with oldish driver 418.x though), no problem. I would rather suspect this is general driver installation issue, not related to cards' model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
