Maybe try different drivers. I start with the open source drivers, then alter as necessary. So far, the open source drivers work fine for my simple needs. I haven't used a proprietary driver in over a decade.
I'm already on the open source ones, I think that's the only option as nothing shows up under the tool to install proprietary ones. (card is an ATI which has good support compared to Nvidia)
It's weird since the problem comes and goes but normally it goes for a good month or two before it resurfaces. The first time it happened I was worried it was the monitor (expensive 4k one) but it does not appear to be the monitor itself. It might also be GPU memory, I read that while researching this. I might try to just buy the exact same card on Ebay or something and hope for the best. This is still relatively minor compared to other GPU related Linux issues I've dealt with in the past, so always reluctant to try a different GPU or driver.
The power company has power lines running through the wilderness? They will do the installation?
Going to setup solar. I have a portable setup for now, but I use the word portable very loosely here... this thing ended up so heavy that it's actually a pain to move it anywhere, even with wheels. I stashed it in the bush for now with a tarp over it. Next time I go I'm going to throw in a bunch of "do not eat" packets in it since when I last checked it, there was condensation building up inside. Probably not good... There's a hard power switch though so think even if stuff gets wet as long as no power is applied to it.
I might actually just cannibalize the parts and setup a permanent system. Either that or I will set it up on an utility trailer. The original goal was being able to load it in the truck with an IBC tote and run a pump to get water but getting it in and out of the truck is involved so that plan will change. For getting water I will probably just use a drill pump. I'll buy a basic Ryobi drill and set it up with an on/off switch so I can flick it on and leave it. Won't bother doing anything to do with water until I have a building with heat though otherwise the pipes will freeze. We get freezing days even in middle of July sometimes. I would purge everything in winter as solar won't be enough to keep things heated until I'm more established with a big system like 10kw.
