I few years back I bought a GTX 1070 to be used for learning about machine learning and computer graphics. But one of the issues that has failed me is running Vulkan on this chip. During the last couple of months I have had a continuous email exchange with a representative for NVIDIA trying to resolve this issue. So far without any success.
My system is as follows:
Any program I run ends with the following error:
$ ./hello-triangle
validation layer: Added messenger
found 1 physical devices
validation layer: terminator_CreateDevice: Failed in ICD libGLX_nvidia.so.0 vkCreateDevicecall
validation layer: vkCreateDevice: Failed to create device chain.
failed to create logical device!
I’ll update this page with a gist to hello-triangle, but meanwhile I wanted to create this page in case anyone else has encountered the same error and has a solution.
