 adrian-gierakowski | sorry if this has been discussed before, but looking at https://hydra.nix-community.org/jobset/nixpkgs/cuda-stable#tabs-evaluations the last Job I'm seeing was a week ago. I thought this jobset was following nixos-unstable-small (although now that I've checked, it's nixos-25.05-small) | 16:11:35 |

| Gaétan Lepage | Hi!
nix-community does not build anything cuda-related anymore.
We are now testing and building packages on our own infra:
We build packages for both the unstable channel and the latest stable nixpkgs channel. | 16:19:44 |
| adrian-gierakowski | awesome, thanks! | 17:00:29 |

 Alexandros Liarokapis | Does anyone know of a good solution to making nix built oci containers usable on systems with nvidia container toolkit installed? Making /run/opengl/drivers etc to work with the mounted paths and all that I mean. | 19:04:15 |
 apyh | oh yeah, i run everything thru nix-gl-host | 19:05:36 |
| apyh | we're using it in prod, seems to work great | 19:05:46 |
| adrian-gierakowski | Does anyone have some tips regarding automatically bumping nixpkgs in a repo which depends on cuda cache? The idea is to only bump to latest commit from nixos-unstable-small once it's been built by the cuda jobset | 19:08:17 |
| Gaétan Lepage | It's just an idea for now, but long-term, I would like us to have nixos-unstable-cuda and nixos-25.11-cuda channels that have their specific channel blockers.
People will be able to follow these channels knowing that they will have reliable cache hits. | 20:06:26 |
| adrian-gierakowski | That would be great! | 20:09:18 |

 le-chat | I'm just copying/symlinking something like libcuda* lib*nvidia* libnv* from the directory where the toolkit put them.
Once upon a time I've been required (for trtexec) to run patchelf --add-rpath /run/opengl-driver/lib on these copies, but that was on older Nixos, I don't know if it's necessary now. | 19:24:19 |

Ftfy Yeah, @glepage:matrix.org: why not now? | 09:01:01 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Well, because we unfortunately are quite busy with a lot of maintenance work. It is hard to find some time to work on those more long-term projects. | 09:32:42 |

Well, because we unfortunately are quite busy with a lot of maintenance work. It is hard to find some time to work on those more long-term projects. I'd be happy to help if there is anything I could do to speed this up. | 12:00:04 |
