t0nito Good. I am checking your logs...

[   30.476746] emulationstatio[1022]: segfault at 7ffe07cafff8 ip 00007f478022dd46 sp 00007ffe07cb0000 error 6 in libc-2.26.so[7f478016a000+13c000]

This ES crash seems not related to nvidia. Would you mind trying a newer (stable) nvidia-legacy image?

I might create a 5.23 beta for you with 5,22 continues to misbehave...

@poke help please.

poke I swapped my GPU to a GT730 so I could use the "regular" 5.22 but it still has the same problem.

I tried swapping my RAM to see if it had anything to do with it but there was no difference.

In case it helps you diagnose the problem, my PC is a Dell Optiplex 755 with a Xeon 3363.

t0nito

@poke Just tried the latest 5.23 beta

Screen shows "Loading system config"
Then says "Done" and crashes immediately.

Have to type "startx" to make it work.

t0nito Strange... i would need to create a debug image for you. Unfortunately, I can't do it at the moment.
Could you please join our discord channel and ask support in #issue-troubleshooting? I will check if susan34 can help you.

gameski After updated to new batocera 5.22, it is not possible use the Nvidia card as possible in 5.21 using laptop dual-gpus. It is look like Nvidia driver was loaded but have error and just black screen.
Log for enable Nvidia driver in batocera-boot.conf:
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=90896934354971346841
Log using 5.21 previous way:

poke

gameski Did you follow the procedure to get hydrid-gpus to work with 5.21? Did you use nvidia-driver in 5.21? Hybrid-gpus are not supported out of the box.

gameski

poke Yes, follow your instruction I could use Nvidia drivers in 5.21 image.

poke

gameski Did you redo the procedure in 5.22?

gameski

poke Yes, I reproduced the same procedure in 5.22 but result in error and black screen.

poke

gameski go to our discord channel and ask Broceliande for some guidance. He created a nice script to automate the procedure for hybrid gpus. It might work for you.

I am new to batocera-linux. I have ran thru the various steps above. My video works, but I do not have any audio thru hdmi. OPENGL info shows 4.6.0 NVIDIA 390.116. I am using an old Zotac zbox with an Nvidia GT 520m.

Hers is a link to my support file.

poke

buggydude1835 did you unmute channels in alsamiser and set a different audio device?

t0nito

buggydude1835 TRy pressing Ctrl+Alt+F4 enter the sound mixer and press F6 choose NVIDIA HDA there you'll see two SPDIF channels with "MM" on the bottom, press M then select the second channel and M again, you should see "00" where the "MM" used to be.

Press Ctrl+Alt+F2 to exit to emulationstation.

I my case I then had to go to sound settings and change AUTO to HDMI1 for t to work. You should hear a chime when you exit the menu.

Restart and you're set.

I hope I didn't screw up any step, as I was thinking them by heart as I wrote.

buggydude1835

poke Thank you for the info!

gameski

poke Do you have Broceliande tag to find him?

gameski

poke I tried to use the Broceliande script but not work for me.
But I had progress using your instructions and part of Broceliande procedure for Batocera 5.22.
This is the steps may can help others (for Dell Vostro 5470 gpu-hybrid Gt740M):

1) mount -o remount,rw /boot
nano /boot/batocera-boot.conf
<remove the leading # from the nvidia-driver=true line>

2) create 99-nvidia.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Section "Module"
Load "modesetting"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "9:0:0"
Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"
EndSection

3) Edit xinitrc in /etc/X11/xinit/

xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0
xrandr --auto

4) Saving the changes

cd /recalbox/scripts/
./recalbox-save-overlay.sh

Reboot

After restart the switch for Nvidia driver is permanent.

So I finally been able to fix the problem, seems like the problem was that the batocera partition was too small and crashes due to lack of space, I wiped clean the drive and reinstalled and now it's working fine.

Looks like batocera's partition used to be 2Gb until 5.21 and after 5.22 is now 3Gb?

poke

gameski please, report it to Broceliande.

Broceliande

gameski sorry the script you tried was not up to date. I din't know it had been published so stayed as it ... my bad
I updated it on gist.
Maybe you can give it a try evene if it doesn't do more that what you did manually ...
