Tumbleweed won't update into new kernel - Can't select it at boot

[bburton]

I am having a versioning issue after a standard update. I ran the standard update calls:

sudo zypper refresh
sudo zypper dup

I had not updated in a while so it was somewhat large. I didn’t really pay attention the output, said a agree to some licenses and rebooted as requested at the end (with sudo reboot)

When it rebooted I noticed it rebooted back into the old kernel (6.13.1.1) - I assumed this was expected and something was holding it back on purpose.

However I then later had a bug with something GPU related so ran nvidia-smi and got:

~> nvidia-smi
Failed to initialize NVML: Driver/library version mismatch
NVML library version: 570.133

Confused and after a bit of troubleshooting I ran:

~> sudo modinfo -F version nvidia
570.86.16

This is where I realised I was out of my depth and turned to ChatGPT. ChatGPT quickly noticed that what it described as a version miss match. Basically the nvidia driver had updated for the new kernel but the new kernel was not being run. This seemed reasonable to me. It got me to do some checks and trouble shooting. I confirmed the system could see the new kernels:

~> rpm -qa | grep kernel-default
kernel-default-6.13.1-1.1.x86_64
kernel-default-devel-6.13.1-1.1.x86_64
kernel-default-6.13.8-1.1.x86_64
kernel-default-devel-6.13.8-1.1.x86_64
kernel-default-devel-6.14.0-1.1.x86_64
kernel-default-6.14.0-1.1.x86_64

I rebuilt the grub config file:

~> sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

It also kept asking me to check these two files and that they could see the new kernel - they can:

~> ls -la /boot/initrd*

lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 43 Apr  7 09:44 /boot/vmlinuz-6.14.0-1-default -> ../usr/lib/modules/6.14.0-1-default/vmlinuz

After all this, if I re boot it boots into the old kernel with the same issues. If i go advanced login at the grub screen it does not show any other options just 6.13.1.1-defeault and 6.13.1.1-defeault (recovery mode). I have also tried a rolling back to a snapshot and updating again to the same results

Now I’m actually not too fussed about being on the newest kernel (obviously id like it eventually) but I assume OpenSUSE had a reason for holding back). But I do need the NVIDIA driver to work on whatever kernel the system thinks is best.

I found this: cuda - Nvidia NVML Driver/library version mismatch - Stack Overflow

Which I think is helpful, but there are too many solutions to try so thought I would check with the opensuse people first:

Two extra things that I don’t know if are relevant but might be helpful.

Here is my output of installed nvidia packages:

The other one i noted when trying again to update from a snapshot - this time i payed more attention to the output. I could not copy all of it quickly enough but I got this when nvidia was checking for conflicts after updating:

part of that might be relevant

[hendersj]

Which video card do you have, and which nvidia driver did you install (and how)?

Running 6.14.0 here with a 3090ti and the G06-570.133.07-33.1 nvidia driver installed from the nvidia repo.

Also, just a word of caution: Don’t trust anything ChatGPT tells you. Generally, it can do OK, but when it comes to working with system-level stuff, always assume it’s hallucinating. That goes for pretty much any LLM-based system.

If it gives you commands to run that look to even be remotely destructive in any way (like changing system config files), ask first. We’ve had several instances where someone blindly followed its advice, and needed help recovering their systems. It’s always better to ask someone with experience before diving in out of your depth.

[bburton]

Hey,

Its a 4070 (laptop). In a Asus ProArt PX13. I followed this for originally downloading the drivers:

https://asus-linux.org/guides/opensuse-guide/#install-nvidia-graphics-drivers

It looks like the installed version is: 570.133.07-33.1

I dont know if this could be causing the problem but it looks like it is installing them from two places:

Also btw:

~> uname -r
6.13.1-1-default

Yes good point about the LLMs, I have noticed that. They frequently just make up flags, go around in circles. I try not to run cmds when I don’t know them. Honestly would love one that is better at linux (or even opensuse specificly) that was a bit more grounded in docs.

[hendersj]

Very well could be having installed from two different sources. I would be inclined to remove both installations, reinstall from the nvidia repo, and go from there.

[bburton]

Ok cleaned up the installs, getting a new error message.

~> nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

I confirmed the clean install worked and have restarted:

I am also still having the kernel issues. Its still booting into 6.13.1.1 despite having new kernels installed:

@bburton

If i go advanced login at the grub screen it does not show any other options just 6.13.1.1-defeault and 6.13.1.1-defeault (recovery mode).

Do you have more than one EFI SYSTEM PARTITION? Have you switched boot devices order recently?

From what you’re describing

kernel-default-6.13.8-1.1.x86_64

is also missing from that list so this doesn’t seem recent?

[nrickert]

@bburton

I am also still having the kernel issues. Its still booting into 6.13.1.1 despite having new kernels installed

How are you booting.

If you happen to have two or more linux systems installed, then you might be using the boot menu from a different linux system. And in this case it will never notice the new kernel for Tumbleweed, until you update grub on that other linux system.

I’m just mentioning a possibility that could explain what you are describing.

[bburton]

I don’t think i do:

I did swap the boot drive when i set it up (maybe 3 months ago) - i installed a blank ssd and installed via a usb.

It is very possible i have had this kernel issue the whole time and only now just encountered a version a problem. (I have only done a sudo zypper duplike once or twice and most recent time was probs a month or two in between.

Is there a different way i should check?

[bburton]

I don’t think I do. The only two things i can think of is i have used snapper to roll back once (just with sudo snapper rollback <##> and then sudo reboot

or when I originally installed the OS i actually did it twice. But just did a clean install and told it to partition the hard drive as recommended in the GUI installer (but this seem less likely to cause an issue)

Im not 100% sure what you mean by ‘how are you booting’ I think just ‘normally’ from the installed ssd. Here is my boot order:

But is maybe that BOOT_IMAGE line overriding things

@bburton

nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-longterm

You should remove this package as you are using the standard kernel.

[bburton]

Yep I did, sorry was accidentally an earlier share I posted.

However I am now pretty sure the NVIDIA issues Im having are a symptom of my kernel issues.

~> nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

[hui]

Do you have any package/kernel locks?

[nrickert]

@bburton

I don’t know enough to know if this is a clue

That looks okay.

@bburton

But is maybe that BOOT_IMAGE line overriding things

That BOOT_IMAGE line comes from grub, so should not be a problem.

Can you provide the output from:

ls -l /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
ls -l /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse

I’m mainly interested in the dates on those files.

[bburton]

Nope

~> sudo zypper locks

There are no package locks defined.

[bburton]

Sure thing:

~> ls -l /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

But you should note that none of those option present themself when i reboot.

[mburge]

The /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse/grub.cfg (Feb 17) is probably taking precedence

[bburton]

@mburge Ok yep I can see the date miss-matches for for grub.cfg.

Any suggestion on how to update this to a new one?

EDIT: Yep this does look like the issue if i look at the efi grub.cfg file it matches what shows on screen at boot under advanced:

Then copy “shim.efi” to “bootx64.efi” and after that it should be able to secure-boot. But you may need to repeat these steps after any grub update or shim update. The idea is that you need t…
