Anone managed to start NVOC version 19 with built-in VGA? I heared this version finally have a fix, for using on rigs built on GP106-100 GPUs

As I can see on the first page, it is still advised to start without monitor attached if you have only p106 in your rig.

I have tried to start full headless, with pure p106 mode enabled, but all I get are errors in logs, mining process doesn't start. Does anyone know why this could happen?

(I have asus z270-p with 8 p106-100, screen was attached only to modify bios settings as described for z270-a, usb stick was never attached with monitor at the same time)

i also have following errors in syslog, in clean nvos019 install. I suppose it's kinda tails from previous usage of "SanDisk_Cruzer_Blade", because I've never used such device.

Can anybody guess what to do to make this thing work? :) thanks in advance!

ok i'm talking with myself but this becomes useful to solve the problem :)
After a little research i've finally launched mining full headless rig of asus z270-p with 7 gp106-100 onboard. Problem was in xorg configuration, nvidia utility helped to solve it:

[code]
sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=28 --allow-empty-initial-configuration
sudo reboot

Now all works fine including overclocking and powerlimits, just one trouble left - if I connect 8-th GPU, nvOS hangs on boot Sad

I have about the same problem, but for some reason your decision didnt fit. I have one error
