I had a problem with my old gpu (nvidia 5060) andI returned it now I have a new one. I installed the new gpu (also nvidia 5060) and now it is not showing as a viable gpu for hardware acceleration, I have done multiple restarts as well as installing and removing the drivers. I’m really stuck here and…

It might be okay to download your current system configuration, do the fresh install and then upload the system configuration and see if the NVIDIA drivers load for your 4060 The LSPCI results look more normal for your 4060 as it recognized the model number where your 5060 didn’t show it. If you w…

I am guessing your have a firmware or hardware version on that requires a newer NVIDIA driver. Browse through the following thread and look for the posts talking about it. Sorry, long thread. You would be checking your current system to make sure the video card is seen by the system and verifying…

[image] SmallBarky: sudo nvidia-smi This is the result i get from that command, install nvidia drivers is checked in the apps settings [image] as well as this from the “ lspci “ command [image]

I think that is showing the NVIDIA card isn’t recognized by the driver included with your version of TrueNAS. Do you have a spare boot device? You could download your current system configuration, power down and swap boot devices, install the 26 Beta 2 and reload your system configuration. That w…

I have swapped the gpu out with a 4060 that I used in my main system with the 5060. I ran my windows pc with the 5060 as well as ran the firmware updater, the result was everything was up to date on the 5060. [image] Now with my 4060 in truenas I still get the same output of not able to read nvid…

It should be System, Advanced Settings and then the Manage Configuration drop down on the upper right. I hope that is what you are asking about. Make sure to save any secret seeds if you have encryption. [image]

Yes that’s what i was wondering, I’ll try that and let you know any updates.

Would resetting the config to default in that same menu, basically be a fresh install? If I don’t have to reinstall Truenas ontop of the already installed version I would rather not. I’m just wondering if that would work as well? kind of in place of a fresh install.

That wouldn’t correct anything that may have broken with trying to update the driver files like you posted. I think you need to do a fresh install over the boot pool to correct that, if that is the problem. Do you have a spare boot device you could try a fresh install over while keeping the origin…

Uh I did, I cannot find it right now for some reason, that does make sense I was mostly just asking for more info on how it works, I’ll keep looking for an available usb drive to boot from to the fresh install and I’ll let you know anything new. EDIT: Found the usb drive

There’s a bit of a bonus to the latest 25.10.6 release - it packs in the 580.173.02 NVIDIA driver. While this doesn’t help anyone who needs the non-open kmod, it might address the 5060/5060Ti not being detected issue for those of you not wanting (or unable to) hope on the TN26 BETA train now.
