i wanted to see if i could get a RTX 3060 working somehow.
Did you end up getting it to work? I haven’t been able to get either of my RTX 40 series cards to be detected, I posted more about it in this thread: Problems with PCIe Gen4 on the x8 slot!
re: debian image, for me it seems to be just completely broken/unreliable in many ways. For example, just a simple apt install nvme-cli smartmontools would completely freeze the system and the heartbeat led would quit blinking. I’ve given up and moved on to using mainline 6.14 NixOS with ACPI and things have been a lot more stable.
