I tried it without rebooting after the upgrade, but then my X session would not start on the next reboot. I did not need to disable the login manager precisely for that reason :-) Just did the install again from the terminal and rebooted once again, and I’m back.
Regarding IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1, I still believe that prepending “env CC=gcc” to the two calls to “make” is the best recipe (although the maintainer disagreed previously). Normally I don’t get any messages about a mismatch, but I did get the error this time when dkms tried to install the old nvidia-340xx-dkms on the new kernel. That is of course correct and helpful as an alert that recompiling is needed.
