Description Roger 2015-10-18 19:13:17 UTC

Looks like I just happened upon a new NVIDIA Linux tool.  Grepping /usr/portage and for any Gentoo ebuilds appears futile.

NVIDIA Linux Graphics Debugger
http://developer.nvidia.com/gameworksdownload#?search=linux graphics debugger

I have only gotten so far as, extracting to a static location.  (ie. Use "-help" option.)

Reproducible: Always




Requires:
Qt libs
x11-misc/xcb


I now have the following error:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/tmp/NVIDIA_Linux_Graphics_Debugger:/usr/lib64/:/usr/lib32" LD_RUN_PATH="$LD_RUN_PATH:/tmp/NVIDIA_Linux_Graphics_Debugger:/usr/lib64/:/usr/lib32" ./nvidia-gfx-debugger.bin 
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb".

Created a custom /etc/ld.so.conf.d/01nvidia.conf to list for the temporary NVIDIA extraction folder (for NVIDIA Linux Graphics Debugger folder) and running the binary now results in the following:
$ ./nvidia-gfx-debugger.bin

Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x50301) with this library (version 0x50402)
Aborted (core dumped)

Two scenarios, either the binary application is picking up the additional installed qtgui-4.8.6, or this application was compiled using qtgui-5.3, while my installed qtgui is qtgui-5.4.2.  Shrugs.

Basically, I'm just kicking some sand around here, and maybe some others are not aware this application exists yet.

Comment 1 Roger 2015-10-18 23:05:51 UTC

If I read this correctly, "0x50402", where periods are designated as zeros ('0').

Hence it looks like this NVIDIA debugger was built using qtcore-5.3.1 and qtgui-5.3.1?  Looking via Google searching, this looks to hold true.  Hence, we're then waiting for NVIDIA to compile against Qt 5.4 version?

That's correct.
