Commands for debugging

1. Run resolve in the shell like "/opt/resolve/bin/resolve" and check console output
2. Check logs inside "/home/marco/.local/share/DaVinciResolve/" and crashlog

 

System analysis

inxi --full --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host

Nouveau blacklisten 

It seems it is installed by default and always loaded so we need to blacklist it.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/nouveau

Did nothing

 

 

Ok now we have the cancer. Manjaro has a helper tool "mhwd" taht can be used to auto install the graphic driver. It also adds a blacklist file into "/etc/modprobe.d"

That file was the cancer of the problem.

Happy too early..reboot, doesnt work

 

Blacklist nouveau now! Go to /etc/modprobe.d and create a blacklist.conf and inset thefollowing:

blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0

I installed davinci-resolve now and rebooted, works now. 

Install resolve-studio...DOES NOT WORK AGAIN FML SO MUCH ANGER ******§*§****!!!§$!§§§§

yes we do

Check more nvidia settings 

nvidia-smi

Check for missing libs:

ldd /opt/resolve/bin/resolve:

Nothing...

No idea all hope lost. Kill the whole system.

• Installed Manjaro 20.1, only install no update after! Kernel 5.8 now (tried 5.7 before)
• Installed "base-devel"
• Installed resolve-studio, chose 440 nvidia drivers!
• Crash:

At least a crash and no crash with full memory ghoste freeze unkillabe process.

• Now i get all updates of the system.
• Crash, forever checking licenses

The package only installed opencl-nvidia-440xx nothing else. wtf

Now i install:

• linux58-nvidia-440xx (Kernel) also will require nvidia-440xx-utils

Start again, does nothig, loading screen freeze. But the log now has some infos:

Ignoring OpenCL error -1001: 'Unspecified Error', GPUPropertiesUtilUnix.cpp:339.

Ok, more weird shit in manjaro. Octopi does not show the packages i installed before meaning linux58-nvidia-440xx

Ok lets use the integrated MHWD implementation taht can be found inside kde settings in the "hardware tab", we chose 440xx

ok start resolve-studio again, but i dont expect anything. Checking licenses forever.

DaVinci Resolve was unable to initialize CUDA and is currently running in OpenCL mode.||If your graphics card supports CUDA 10, please install the latest NVIDIA driver for optimal performance. Alternatively, you can set the GPU processing mode to OpenCL in Preferences.

We have no cura but it should run.

libDeckLinkAPI.so can not be found

Well no idea if that is a problem, so we install "decklink" and "decklink-sdk" from AUR.

Decklink error is gone BUT still freeze on startup! YAY....fml

Ha ok well, lets install various nvidia drivers and check again:

Ok great work. Uninstall runs for 40 minutes now, so it seems it does not work. gui stuff ftw..great.

 

• 440x failed so far, so we deinstall it now
• 450xx testing..install...remove 440x. Ok
• 455xx not tested

Now we get crashdumps again

Ok i installed it on a secondpc that has a 1050 and one monitor, manjaro too. Here some date

• 440 nvidia
• kernel 5.8.1.18-1 (same as mine)
• Manjaro 5.20.2 (same as mine)
• QT 5.15.1 (same as mine)

This kind of "not working" is hell level 99...

RAGE JUST RAGE!

I removed 3 of 4 monitores and installed resolve-studio. Started YAY..happy... closed. Startet...again this Fu**ing license check shit forever.

 

Ok i compared the two computers. Turns out i have TRIZEN installed here and YAY on the other. Installed YAY..now works. Seems TRIZEN is shit when it comes to install davinci resolve. Cheers. Solved

Used 440xx using MHWD install! So it works, my bad.

FML, installed software like darktable etc. and HERE WE GO AGAIN!

Ok think.....disconnected all monitors but one, disconnected all USB devices. Works.

Ok it seems that this friggin HUB that i had plugged in is killing it...nice. So i kill(remove) the hub and it works!
