For me is the combination PKGBUILD and PATCH working with kernel linux 5.8.1.arch1-1. NVIDIA Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS Rev. 2] (rev a1) Thanks.

@papakilo - It seems they have a patch for 5.8. Does anyone know how the navigate launchpad? I need to find their source patches to see how to adapt to our package.

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/492473168/buildlog_ubuntu-bionic-amd64.nvidia-graphics-drivers-340_340.108-2lmtrbionic_BUILDING.txt.gz

Towards the end:

-rw-r--r-- root/root      2373 2020-08-08 12:55 ./usr/src/nvidia-340-340.108/patches/buildfix_kernel_5.8.patch

EDIT: I got it, needed to look at the "available diffs" for example: https://launchpad.net/~kelebek333/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia-legacy/+files/nvidia-graphics-drivers-340_340.108-1lmtrfocal3_340.108-2lmtrfocal.diff.gz

I now have a package that builds against 5.8. Can someone with supported hardware try it? I don't want to push to AUR until linux-5.8 goes into [core]:

Just for info, Ubuntu and derivatives have Nvidia 340 drivers for kernel 5.8 here: https://launchpad.net/~kelebek333/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia-legacy

@papakilo - They aren't ... I cannot build this package against 5.8.0

@graysky - Hi, patches for kernel 5.7 have been around and worked good for some time, as I'm using kernel 5.7.14 and Nvidia 340.108 in Manjaro. So I suppose those patches could be the same for kernel 5.8...

graysky commented on 2020-08-09 13:05 (UTC)

@papakilo - Thank you for the link, but unless the new patche(s) are also backwards compatible with 5.7 which is currently offered in [core], and until the 5.8 kernel package moves from [testing] to [core], the package is not out-of-date.

Also, the link you posted only shows a 1-month-old patch for 5.7. I did not see a modification for 5.8. Perhaps I missed it?

Hi, new patches for kernel 5.8 here: https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/extra/linux58-extramodules/nvidia-340xx/

This looks promising for 5.7 kernels.
