Libgl and nvidia-utils

I am trying to update with pacman but get this error;
:: Starting full system upgrade...

warning: removing 'libgl' from target list because it conflicts with 'nvidia-utils'

:: savage-dri: requires libgl=7.7.1

:: tdfx-dri: requires libgl=7.7.1
Can I safely remove these drivers to allow upgrade?
I only have an nvidia gpu so I do not see a problem in removing these....:/
I could be wrong of course.
Any advice welcome.

pacman -Rd libgl
pacman -S nvidia-utils
it provides "libgl", so there is no prob.

I've read threads on this before but this time nvidia-utils is being asked to be removed. I'm not sure if removing nvidia-utils is safe. Before, reading some threads on here, I had to set libgl to ignore to get nvidia-utils to install.
Thanks.

I remember that I had to remove libgl when installing the Nvidia driver, has something regarding that situation changed/inverted ?

Two GPUs, two purposes - libgl and nvidia-utils conflict - lib32-libgl

Hi all!
After realizing there is no way (by now) to perform a vgs switch (between integrated Intel and discrete Nvidia GPUs) using nvidia propertary driver (as I read, the only one supporting gpgpu with cuda/openCL), I wondered if there is a way of letting them co-exist: graphics on the integrated one and applications on the nvidia. After all, I might not need to be using the discrete card for the video if I want to use it for other purposes.
Obeviously, the tho drivers conficlt (nvidia-utils conflicts with libgl), but in this post a workaround is suggested.
Thing is, also lib32-nvidia-utils and lib32-libgl (Skype depends on it) conflict, so I thought I could just extend the suggestion, but I couldn't find lib32-libgl's pkgbuild. Where can I find it? If it doesn't exist at all, is there a way I can workaround?
By the way, why aren't libgl and lib32-libgl on abs? In what way are they different from the others?
There is libgl-git in AUR, but I couldn't find the 32-bit version.
Do you think I have a chanche it'll work?
Thanks a lot

So you think it'll never work :sad:
Actually, it is working now. It's a recent development posted in the mailing lists, but the solution came up yesterday and tests have been positive so far. It's confirmed to work in at least two Optimus machines.
Progress is being posted in the mailing lists, but the author, Martin Juhl, is also blogging it. I'll just sum up what the solution: It resorts to turbojpeg VirtualGL and two xorgs. The intel card does everything, and apps meant to use the nvidia are specifically run with vglrun.
Unfortunately, the solution removes hardware acceleration in the intel card (immediately noticeable by the absence of desktop effects). In arch that translates the libgl / nvidia-utils conflict.
intel-dri demands libgl.
xf86-video-intel demands intel-dri.
In order to install nvidia + nvidia-utils in Arch, without removing intel-dri and xf86-video-intel, you have to:
# pacman -Sd nvidia nvidia-utils
This will still remove libgl, though.
Now THAT is just cool... would make optimus laptops so much more useful if/when it works reasonably well. Sounds like quite a bit of hackery involved though.

Solved the problem is very simple - removing the nouveau. I have it was because I was in one blog/forum read that no problem with containing both nvidia and nouveau, but that one of them will be in Blacklist. But he interrupted me to upgrade. But the strangest thing - when I last updated, they do not conflict, but now whoop.
Thanks TigTex and wonder for your help!

That might be your best bet. I thought I had an even older version in my cache, but unfortunately I must have deleted it a few days ago. Sorry.
Edit: Did you by chance upgrade your kernel, too? A few times I've had trouble when upgrading the kernel. Try reinstalling (perhaps uninstalling and reinstalling) the nvidia drivers, or try "modprobe nvidia" as root. Hopefully one of them will do it for you. But then again, if you're not getting errors from X and you just have a black screen, I doubt either of those will do it.
Good luck.

I just tried to install blueman (GTK+ bluetooth manager), and I was greeted with the pleasant message:

I've looked it up and seen many similar scenarios (with nvidia-libgl instead of nvidia-libgl-beta), but they all seemed to be resolved by uninstalling nouveau; I don't have that installed.
Any ideas as to where I should go from here?

Well, I quoted the 'full output of pacman' - there was no code in it.
When pasting configs, code or command output, please use [ code ] tags https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode
like this
It makes the code more readable and - in case of longer listings - more convenient to scroll through.
It is important you post it in full, even (or especially) when it's so short. You should include the command you used, not just the output.

Find out which package is it.
Why should an already installed package trying to install another package afterwards?
You are installing new versions of some packages. They may have different dependencies from the versions you have currently installed, so you will end up installing some new packages too.

$ sudo pacman -Syu nvidia-libgl
But new nvidia (pkgrel >= 2) has libgl as a dependency, so it seems your repo is not (yet) updated. If it is, then the command is:
$ sudo pacman -Syu

Running Intel HD Graphics for UI and Nvidia GT640m for CUDA

Hello,
I wanted to configure my laptop with arch64 in such a way that I can run all the UI stuff on the Intel integrated video card and still being able to debug my CUDA application without having my desktop freezing. But there's conflict between libgl and nvidia-utils.
When libgl is installed then GNOME shows up in good quality, but CUDA doesn't work. On the other side, when nvdiai-utils is installed GNOME goes to fallback mode and the CUDA stuff runs.
In the first case, the nvidia cuda driver aren't loaded. In the second case, Cuda works, but i don't know on which device the desktop stuff is executed. How do I find out? How to run both side by side?
The devices:
Intel HD Graphics 4000 (i7 3610QM) for X
Nvidia GT 640m only for CUDA.
Thank you for your time.

Since I have only mathematical computations to do, I solved it like that:
The proposed solution with AUR package, contains old dev-drivers for x64. The same for the nvidia website. Only the nvidia and nvidia-utils package from extra are up to date.
So I downloaded the nvidia packages (nvidia and nvidia-utils) and installed them, then i installed cuda-sdk and cuda-toolkit from community. After that I unzipped nvidia and nvidia-utils to some folder, removed the files conflicting with Intel's OpenGL and forced the removal of nvidia and nvidia-utils. Then I copied the unpack files to their intended place and reinstalled Intel's OpenGL package.
It works for purely local numerical computations. Note that OpenGL can not be execute on this machine, but development is possible.

Xorg won't start after upgrading nvidia-utils

Today I did a pacman -Syu , it wanted to upgrade nvidia-utils, I said yes and it told me it would remove nvidia package as it conflict with, so I let it remove nvidia pakage.
Then Xorg didn't wanted to start. I reinstalled nvidia and received the following error:
Error: API mismatch: The NVIDIA kernel module has the version 1.0-8178, but this X module has the version 1.0-8762
Please make sure kernel module and all Nvidia components have the same version
Then I removed nvidia and nvidia-utils and reinstalled them, now I receive the following error when trying to start Xorg:
Fatal: could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.16.18-ARCH/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko
Failed to load nvidia kernel module!
How do I fix this? I'm using my own compiled kernel version (2.6.16.18) and Xorg worked find before doing pacman -Syu and updating nvidia-utils.

If you use a custom kernel, you'll need to compile your own nvidia modules: http://www.archlinux.org/news.php#238

What is going on with lib32-nvidia-utils

the lib32-nvidia-utils package has been downgraded from 180.29 to 173.14.18
also there are 2 new packages now : lib32-nvidia-utils-180.29-3 and lib32-nvidia-utils-173.14.18-1
It's quite messy. Also 173.14.18 doesn't have corresponding nvidia and nvidia-utils packages.

somebody was playing with those builds. from what i see ghost-linux

Nvidia & nvidia-utils upgrade breaks X

Yesterday I upgraded nvidia and nvidia-utils (nvidia-185.18.31-1 & nvidia-utils-185.18.31-1) and it caused X to fail on next boot. (I've downgraded for now).
In the /var/log/Xorg.0.log it gave an error that told me to go look in the kernel log (If you want the exact message, I'd have to upgrade again and try to boot. Because of the logrotate, I guess.)
this is what I found in /var/log/kernel.log
Aug 1 10:31:26 kasparov kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 185.18.31, but
Aug 1 10:31:26 kasparov kernel: NVRM: this kernel module has the version 185.18.14. Please
Aug 1 10:31:26 kasparov kernel: NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver
Aug 1 10:31:26 kasparov kernel: NVRM: components have the same version.
Anyone have any ideas?

I ran into this breakage today and simply rebuilding nvidia-utils and nvidia from ABS didn't do the trick. The symptom on my Toshiba Tecra M3 laptop (2005 vintage, Pentium M, Nvidia Geforce Go 6200/6600 video) is that X hangs completely with a blank screen. Nothing works and I have to force an ACPI shutdown by holding down the power button.
I tried various versions of Nvidia and downgrading xorg-server all to no avail until, as a desperation shot, I tried the beta Nvidia drivers 190.18. That seems to have done the trick. Just posting about it here in case there's anyone else in the same boat (i.e. rebuilding the release drivers doesn't work).
