Enable iGPU on Kimsufi
This is a quick guide to enable the iGPU on a Kimsufi server in Debian/Ubuntu so that you can use Plex quicksync. I did this on KS-7. It look me a while to figure it out. So, I wanted to save others the trouble.
Check to see if you need this by running
ls /dev/dri. If the directory doesn't exist; proceed.Run
sudo nano /etc/default/grubThere should be a line that says something like
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset iommu=pt"
- Remove the "nomodeset" part so that it just says
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="iommu=pt"
Do whatever the comments on the file say to update grub (probably
sudo update-grub).Reboot
Now, you should have some devices under /dev/dri. After this, I was able to use hardware transcoding in Plex.
