@Yomi95 Thanks for your feedback. And yes, Linux kernel sources and GCC have to be up to date. I'm also under Linux kernel 7.0.5-arch1-1.

Thanks for the patches 0020 0021, Unix-Like and r3n4n

Working well on Linux Arch 7.0.5 and Zen

What I did:

git clone latest patched repo or this one + patching
cd nvidia-340xx
NVIDIA_340XX_DKMS_ONLY=1 makepkg -si

P.S After many failed attempts I learned you NEED to compile it from the new Kernel 7.0 with newest gcc/gcc-libs 16.1.1 for it to work, cuz I keep using latest Zen stable till nvidia gets patch.

P.S2 If you guys use chromium browsers like Brave Origin and gpu support stopped working DISABLE > "Fallback to software if GLES3 is not supported" in chrome://flags Idk if needed but I use "Override software rendering list" too and some others!

It's done, nvidia-340xx-340.108-41 or clone it.

You're welcome. Please feel free to post it on GitHub; I don't use GitHub.

Hi @r3n4n. It works for me too. Thank you so much. As last time, I can publish your work on my Github fork repo and create a pull request if you want. I am currently on Linux kernel 7.0.3-arch1-2.

Hi, for compatibility with Kernel 7 and gcc16 I have made a patch(based upon https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-7.0.patch?h=nvidia-470xx-utils):

actually now that i've read the comments i see that there's an lts-dkms package, which seems weird since dkms gives you one package for all kernel versions and branches for free. dkms packages for zfs, zenpower, xtables, xone, nvidia 390,430,470,510,525,535,550,575,575open,570 and beta and others do not have separate dkms packages for different kernels (flavors). is there some inherent difference of linux-lts that specifically nvidia-340xx-lts-dkms should be used with lts? if so, it should be noted on the wiki and maybe in package descriptions or something, because i for one didn't even consider variations of dkms packages existing, i just typed in nvidia-340xx-dkms as seen on the wiki and installed it. works fine on lts btw.

@TheExplorer there are also not so niche usecases such as using an aur helper and a non vanilla kernel (lts or zen), where the appropriate headers for the kernel you're using are required, and not linux vanilla headers. to reiterate, requiring "linux-headers" does not make the package manager pull the apropriate headers, it makes it pull the vanilla linux headers, and thus its dependencies such as vanilla linux, and thus its hooks and dependencies such as making two initcpios filling up your efi partition or whatever.

Re https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-340xx-dkms#comment-1060354 : because that's what the wiki recommends and there are some niche scenarios (having a kernel inside coreboot came to my mind first) where you don't have any kernel installed.

Hello, is it possible to get 0019-kernel-6.15.patch added to the LTS version of this package? The LTS kernel is now throwing the associated 6.15 errors. There have been requests out for several weeks on that package's page, and I'm not sure if the correct people have seen them. Thanks!
