With this announcement, I'm now interested in trying out some Nvidia graphics cards on the Pi again. Nouveau had some issues, and the official drivers had no source available, so I couldn't hack them to work.
With the source available... it could be possible! Of course, CUDA support may never happen there, at least not using open source code.
- remexre 4y agoWhich ones are connectable to it? And does this rely on the "replace the USB3 controller with a PCIe bridge" hardware mod?
- aftbit 4y agoParent is talking about the Compute Module 4, which can plug into (among other things) a first party IO board that has a PCIe 1x slot. With a simple hardware mod (cut the slot connector, cut the GPU, use a riser, etc etc), any GPU can physically fit. He's only gotten one to work so far though, an ancient ATI card. Lots of fun YouTube videos and GitHub issues about this if you search parent's name or look at links in his profile.
- adolph 4y ago<meta>-F geerl: not disappointed Thank you for the work you do, I'm going through your ssd on rpi4 today!
- jacooper 4y agoIts a bit too early now isn't it ? The driver is still very alpha, and doesn't support most display stuff.

- geerlingguy 4y agoThis early is a good time to also iron out some of the inevitable aarch64 bugs that have already been ironed out in other kernel drivers for AMD/other stacks.
- kaladin-jasnah 4y agoIt… works. I'm typing this comment from a machine running the new FOSS drivers like a champ on KDE Plasma. Not that it is perfectly stable, but it definitely works.
