T400 support

mostlife · June 9, 2022 at 1:11 AM

Hi,

I get an error stating Xorg failed. I suspect the T400 is not supported yet, as my cpu and motherboard are from 2018 and 2019 respectively.

How do I solve this? I tried both nightly's of both 11 and 10, and the non nightlies.

I also changed the bios to accept csm, disabled tpm, disabled secure boot, disabled software guard extension, which made no difference.

Awaiting your response,

Joannes Wyckmans

Add "ssh" to kernel boot params in http://syslinux.conf/extlinux.conf. This forces the SSH daemon to run at startup so you can SSH into the device from an Ethernet connection to run "dmesg | paste" .. then share the URL so we can see startup/boot and what the reason for failure is.

NVidia Quadro T400 ? Why put LibreElec on it?

It might be economy version of Quadro card, but it is still from Quadro product line and new Nvidia cards tend to require binary/proprietary drivers from Nvidia.

curl : (6) Could not resolve host: ix.io

Edit: after internet connection, I got this:

And for the t400, because it is cheap for 8k decoding support, to be future proof

I think this is the issue:

And no, Nvidia doesn't need propietary drivers with newer hardware, Just newer drivers

At startup the card PCI device ID is checked against the current driver (470.129.06) and if no match is found it falls back to the legacy driver (340.108). So the issue is a missing card ID not missing drivers - we already have something close to latest.

https://github.com/LibreELEC/Libr…idia.rules#L300 shows the device is correctly mapped in LE11 images so please retest with the latest nightly.

you need Generic-legacy nightly that is currently not yet build (by accident), should be available after weekend

So, I guess I will wait till after the weekend. Thank you for your help.
