| Summary | 0000903: How to build nvidia driver without GLX/GLNVD libraries? | ||||
| Description | This isn't so much an issue as a question, but I'm very lost on how to proceed. Essentially, im trying to reproduce the following: ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-418.43.run --no-glvnd-egl-client --no-glvnd-glx-client --no-install-libglvnd I've been trying to rebuild kmod-nvidia and kmod-x11-drv so that it doesn't use any of the glvnd stuff, because in maya 2018+centos 7.6 it breaks the viewport 2.0. So far, I've downloaded the source RPMs and attempted to rebuild it with all the egl/glx/glvnd stuff commented out, but I believe I need to manually symlink system libraries? | ||||

Simple answer - just use the nvidia binary installer with the options you want if you can't figure out how to package it. Either that, or file a bug against the package that is broken so it works correctly with GLVND. At some point NVIDIA will likely remove non-GLVND support. |

Well, the issue is this is for hundreds of workstations. Running the binary manually isn't a scale-able solution. As for filing a bug...I have very low hopes for Autodesk fixing their shit. Opened a ticket with them of course, but I doubt it will go anywhere. Thanks for the reply. I'll post back if I ever figure it out. |

If you've not already found it, this page gives an overview of the GLVND/non-GLVND components in the nvidia driver and should give you a good starting point for the components you need to install/not install in your package: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/915640/multiple-glx-client-libraries-in-the-nvidia-linux-driver-installer-package/ Also, take a look at one of our older pre-GLVND package source as a reference. We switched over to enabling GLVND by default in the driver version 375.20-1. Older sources are available from our archives. See also this email thread discussing enabling GLVND: http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2016-August/003191.html |

The links you provided were EXTREMELY helpful. Thanks a lot. The key was the LibGL.so.%{version} library. Adding it to the install + symlink sections did the trick (so far in my testing) |
