I am running Ubuntu 16.04 and have compiled and installed the realtime kernel from kernel.org.
The problem I’m facing is that the code I’m developing not only depends on the realtime kernel but also needs GPU compute capabilities with my NVIDIA card. This means I need to install the binary NVIDIA drivers alongside with the CUDA tools.
But I can’t install the official NVIDIA driver on a realtime linux kernel. The installer prompts that the driver is not compatible with realtime kernels.
Does anyone have an idea how can solve this problem.
I have seen some repositories on the arch linux wiki but those drivers are outdated and not maintained anymore.
So what I need is a patch that I can apply to my realtime kernel before I compile and package it.
That was actually a helpful idea but after installation I realized that the library that my program relies on checks for /sys/kernel/realtime being set to the value 1.
The liquorix kernel sadly doesn’t set this value. And as the /sys/* params can and should not be set by the user, this path just failed.
I’m still open for new ideas but this whole incompatibility thing seems so silly to me!
Is there any technical explanation for why a graphics driver would not work with the realtime kernel?
wouldn’t know dude, don’t recall hearing her name before!
but may be the sort of realtime kernel OP is seeking if wanting CUDA too
i saw mention of an old repository on Arch, which i took to be the old ArchAudio
likely was missed that there is pro-audio group in Arch community repository
same as Manjaro maintains most of the JACK stuff in community
not easy to work out what it actually is yet due to lack of specific information
