Nvidia ships stubs without the .1s which is why we have https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/a8ffc2295c358629bc1bda569bf8b3bbb21aa1be/pkgs/development/cuda-modules/cuda/overrides.nix#L124-L129

I just raised an issue earlier today about some of the driver hashes missing for some of the releases, it feels to me like we really need a solid cuda json scraper to prefetch script

i guess it's just consistently the case that ld.so believes there's a better match than that one.

In reply to @ss:someonex.net
Yes, there's https://github.com/ConnorBaker/cuda-redist-find-features/ but afaik Connor's developing this alone, and there stuff to be improved with the way we parse the results on nixpkgs side too

Is there a reason why https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/291471 is not merged?

It's a disagreeable opinion but the whole "inspect the system at eval time" business in nixGL makes me want to scream "why". Even the idea of requiring a running nix-daemon in order to load the drivers at the program's startup... I think it's very backwards.

I think nix-gl-host decomposes tasks better, but

1. It doesn't handle the "nixos but a different release (libc)" situation (nixGL... well it does, just under some set of assumptions)
2. I'd much rather have a mode where nix-gl-host is used to export the /run/opengl-driver/lib prefix, rather than construct LD_LIBRARY_PATH. ot only because the latter screws up search path priorities, but because the workflow I'd rather see is you run a non-nixos, you drop a systemd unit, and voilla your drivers work exactly the way they do on nixos

Has anyone successfully built blender on unstable with CUDA support enabled recently?

In reply to @ss:someonex.net
Note there was recently somebody in nix-gl-host issues advertising their Rust rewrite

Did you take a look at https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-toolkit already? I think they are battling with similar issues, plus sandboxing on top. It seems like they are using ld.so.cache as a loading mechanism instead of the LD_* env var and that might be more robust?

looks like it's broken since end of October: https://hydra.nix-community.org/build/1720981
