[SOLVED] Nvidia error

MrEd · June 16, 2020, 7:11pm

I recently started noticing an error when updateing.

ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is empty, not checked.

After some digging around for info, I decided it’s probly safer to ask for help, but I have a few outputs that may help.

$ ldconfig
ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is empty, not checked.
ldconfig: Can’t create temporary cache file /etc/ld.so.cache~: Permission denied

$ sudo modprobe nvidia-dkms
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia-dkms not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.46-1-lts

$ lsmod | grep nvidia
nvidia_drm 53248 1
nvidia_modeset 1056768 13 nvidia_drm
nvidia 14729216 605 nvidia_modeset
drm_kms_helper 221184 1 nvidia_drm
ipmi_msghandler 69632 2 ipmi_devintf,nvidia
drm 520192 4 drm_kms_helper,nvidia_drm

Occasionally the video freezes up, so I’m wondering if fixing this may help, either that there is something very wrong.

Maybe just reinstall it?

Also, since you use the 390 driver I assume you have a vintage card?

MrEd · June 16, 2020, 8:28pm

dkms reinstall didn’t fix it

Reinstalling nvidia-390xx-dkms (390.132-38)…
Configuring nvidia-390xx-dkms…
ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is empty, not checked.

and yes, GT 740

ricklinux · June 16, 2020, 8:43pm

What is the reason you are using the 390xx drivers? Is this a laptop or desktop card? If it is a Geforce GT 740 then you should be using the 440XX series drivers.

https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/159360/en-us

You can use nvidia in the 440xx series or the dkms version…
Dkms is better choice as it rebuilds kernel modules with all updates so you can use it on both standard kernel and or lts kernel or other kernels too.

MrEd · June 16, 2020, 11:22pm

Most I can figure is when I set it up originally, the 390 drivers was the one that worked, the nvidia drivers did not support this card or the 730 which I had previously.
It was sometime during Antergos the nvidia driver stopped supporting them and had to switch to 390 drivers. They must have added them back in.

I have now changed back to nvidia drivers using the dkms, utils and lib32-nvidia-utils all 440 version

I still however get this

$ ldconfig
ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is empty, not checked.

So I’m wondering how to get rid of it as I’m sure this means it will show again during next update.

ricklinux · June 16, 2020, 11:27pm

Do you have nvidia-settings installed and did you purge them before installing the new 440xx version?

Edit:

Maybe run this and see what it shows?

pacman -Qkk | grep warning

Edit:
Don’t run this as it will show all kinds of unrelated stuff as i tried it on mine.

MrEd · June 16, 2020, 11:50pm

It is now installed, I thought it was, but it is now, so whats next

ricklinux · June 16, 2020, 11:51pm

Reboot and see…

Edit: After reboot check nvidia settings in start menu? Not sure what desktop you are using? You should be able to bring up the gui settings panel.

Edit: Should look something like this.

I wouldn’t worry about this as i tried it on mine and i got a whole bunch of unrelated stuff too that isn’t a problem.

Edit: I don’t see that file anyway.

MrEd · June 17, 2020, 12:03am

LOL I saw your “don’t run this” too late

ricklinux · June 17, 2020, 12:04am

Is the error gone? Also can you open the nvidia settings panel from the menu.(gui)

MrEd · June 17, 2020, 12:07am

gui open

still get
$ ldconfig
ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is empty, not checked.
ldconfig: Can’t create temporary cache file /etc/ld.so.cache~: Permission denied

ricklinux · June 17, 2020, 12:14am

When do you get the error?

ricklinux · June 17, 2020, 12:20am

Can you check if there is a nvidia-settings.conf in /etc/ld.so.conf.d

MrEd · June 17, 2020, 12:21am

It actually showed up when I was doing updates.
But I guess i was assuming it will just keep showing whenever it needs to update again.
And since 390 drivers are no longer in there, I would think it would no longer show when typing ldconfig.

However, if it’s not causing any issues I could probly live with it unless you know of a way to get rid of it with nvidia-settings gui?

ricklinux · June 17, 2020, 12:28am

What does typing ldconfig do? I’m not familiar with that?

MrEd · June 17, 2020, 12:37am

from what I’ve read, seems to be something with startup.

I started searching for it after I saw the error show up in an update.

The error in the last couple days show this

ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is empty, not checked.

and so from a consol I just typed ldconfig and it shows up,
Also from what I’ve read, I’m led to believe it’s a broken package from the 390 drivers, I would have thought it was gone when changeing drivers but is still there.

ricklinux · June 17, 2020, 12:44am

I think if you can find the link and rename it maybe. Did you look in /usr/lib too see if libnvidia-gtk3.so.390.116 is there?

Edit: I’m just not sure how to rectify this. It’s from the 390 drivers don’t know why you were getting it other than the file don’t exist?

MrEd · June 17, 2020, 1:11am

something very bad just happened, my entire usr/lib directory dissappeared when I deleted that file, the file was empty.
afraid to reboot
idk what happened
