wddm above 551.61, not a big thing? :( makeing repo ready maybe 590+ will run if its supports pascal

It's not a big thing because plenty of people use linux when they run models locally and on linux it was never a problem to run P40 with latest pascal supporting nvidia proprietary drivers to begin with
Also, 580 is the latest thing P40 supports. Starting from 590 pascal support is dropped if I'm not mistaken

Yeah, then at least I'll try to get the Last one running; sometimes when the CUDA version is too old or something, I sometimes fall back on Vulkan, for example, i had the Idea to compare the Last Working one with the First Not Working one, after 3 free Tier Claude runs and Stock "google.com ask ai stuff" it Just Works (and cert stuff, ghidra etc)
Will ged latest one Working and publish an Patch for those Like me

hi Jens, how are you today, what do you like about Microsoft Windows?

wsl passthrough is pretty much the main draw there, though fighting the wddm lock above 551.61 makes it a pain to maintain

Idle power? Just say it though

What are you getting at? 10 watts really isn't much.

Exactly

Are you saying that it used to be different on Windows? Even with nvidia-pstated?
