Hello!
I've recently bought a new laptop in order to be able to install and run DaVinci Resolve; so I've installed CentOS 9 Stream, blacklisted the nouveau driver, installed the nvidia driver (using this method) and then successfully installed DVResolve.
Everything was smooth before I installed the nvidia driver; the problem is that now I frequently encounter small freezes/stutters (e.g. when using the mouse or the keyboard, it randomly takes one second before reacting).
Could someone help me find the cause of this issue? How could I troubleshoot it?
Thank you very much for your help!
CentOS 9 Stream stutter using nVidia drivers
Re: CentOS 9 Stream stutter using nVidia drivers
I assume your mouse/keyboard are USB attached? Is there anything in /var/log/messages or in the output from journalctl -xe ?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Re: CentOS 9 Stream stutter using nVidia drivers
Not necessarily; there are stutters when the windows are opening, when I use a USB mouse, or the touchpad/keyboard of the laptop, etc. It seems to be a common problem with the nVidia drivers, since I've seen a lot of messages saying the same thing as me on the Internet, but they weren't about CentOS specifically...TrevorH wrote:I assume your mouse/keyboard are USB attached?
There are no error message in the output of journalctl -xe; there are only 3 warnings (originally in orange):TrevorH wrote:Is there anything in /var/log/messages or in the output from journalctl -xe ?
However, the /var/log/messages file is a veeeery long file; so I've posted the result of "sudo cat /var/log/messages | grep -i nvidia" (only the last 300 lines!) here: https://privatebin.io/?d78af8776f9c3a65 ... wG7bpuwSSKmai 28 14:55:17 192.168.1.22 gnome-shell[2270]: Can't update stage views actor MetaWindowGroup is on because it needs an allocation.
