Hi,
I found some forum messages about hardware decode on Linux, but none could help me much. The Windows 11 desktop (NX server) uses hardware encoding but the Linux (Kubuntu 22.04.1 LTS plasmashell 5.24.7) client (where the good GPU is) only uses software encoding.
I would say that the error is related to libva (see session log attached), perhaps due to version problems (Kubuntu 22.04 shipped libraries vs NoMachine 8.2.3 Free Version requirements) but can’t say for sure or solve by myself.
Can someone help me, please?
Thanks a lot.

In order to investigate, we need to check them; can you please resend them by email to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com, making sure to reference the topic as the subject of the email?
Thank you!
January 10, 2023 at 12:42 #42400fra81ModeratorHi Piter,
logs show that DRM initialization fails, maybe due to some missing package. Please show us the output of this command:
dpkg -l | grep -i "libva\|vaapi\|vdpau"

January 13, 2023 at 11:57 #42458Piter DiasParticipantHi. I believe this package was removed from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. In fact, searching Ubuntu repositories I just found it on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
sudo apt install vdpau-va-driver
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree… Done
Reading state information… Done
Package vdpau-va-driver is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
mesa-va-drivers:i386 mesa-va-driversE: Package ‘vdpau-va-driver’ has no installation candidate
sudo apt install mesa-va-drivers

mesa-va-drivers is already the newest version (22.0.5-0ubuntu0.3).

can you show us the output of these two commands?

lsmod
January 26, 2023 at 18:22 #42716Piter DiasParticipantSee below the outputs. Isn’t the problem related to the drop of vdpau-va-driver by Debian? See “vainfo requires a nvidia sofile not in repositories”.
Thanks a lot.

Isn’t the problem related to the drop of vdpau-va-driver by Debian?
Yes, it seems so. Anyway this isn’t something that can be fixed in the NoMachine software.
February 17, 2023 at 18:51 #42990Piter DiasParticipantOk. Thanks.
February 20, 2023 at 06:30 #42994IlgazParticipantI have a way more older/less capable nvidia 9400 here running both openSUSE Tumbleweed (modern, latest kernel, rolling) nouveau driver and Mint (Ubuntu 20.04 based, LTS) with nvidia 340 closed source driver.
Both have vaapi enabled. Following is from openSUSE Tumbleweed. NoMachine refuses to use hardware decoding. This is a particularly big issue on a low spec/old machine like this.

please show us the client side logs for your case (https://kb.nomachine.com/DT07S00244?s=client%20logs#2). You can attach them here or send to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com, by referencing this topic.

I am currently on Linux Mint 20.3 which is based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with 5.4 series kernel. I have nvidia official 340 series driver (not nouveau) installed and ‘vainfo’ command outputs this. Log attached.

, because nomachine specifically uses ‘drm’, not the ‘x11’Here’s a one-liner for bash that should print only drivers and devices that will work (if nothing is printed, then nothing works). It iterates through all devices in /dev/dri and all drivers in /usr/lib/*_drv_video.so:
