Hi,
I’ve used VICTRE phantom to create a vti file. When I try to represent Volume data it showed the error “Capabilities Check via proxy texture 3D allocation failed”. Could any one help me with this.
I have a Dell Precision M4800 and running Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS.
I’ve tried on my windows laptop and it worked fine.
Thank you
Min

I have NVIDIA GK107GM [Quadro K1100M] and the driver I think is the nvidia-driver-390.
Thank you

GK107, GM107 and K1100M are three different GPUs.
Which is it ?
In any case, 390 is an outdated driver, please update.

it is K1100M, I tried to update the driver with sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall command. it was not working.
Do you know which driver I should install from Nvidia. I can’t find it from the website.

According to this:[https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us](https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us)
it should be this: [https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/153717/en-us](https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/153717/en-us)
