Arch Linux User Repository

@ukase: You need the patch from this comment

was running everything fine until i installed some packages and update the sys ive tried to install again with yay but it aint even compiling here the make.log that generates in /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/nvidia-version/build https://gist.github.com/sjakk/d0d7bbc789a0580e488d559c56f73273 anyone some suggestion?

@SinClaus:

1. you can clone this repository or you can start from scratch

2. the PKGBUILD file references the following files, in the same folder, and there are no symlinks involved; you have to use the PKGBUILD from the previous comment

3. nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf

Section "OutputClass"
    Identifier "nvidia"
    MatchDriver "nvidia-drm"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"
    ModulePath "/usr/lib/nvidia/xorg"
    ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules"
EndSection

• NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-470.199.02.run <= will be downloaded by the package

• kernel-6.4.patch <= you already got its contents from a previous comment

• you can execute makepkg -g to obtain the output for the checksums collection; then you can replace in the PKGBUILD file the corresponding sums

• now you can run makepkg

Good luck !

edited: fixed typo, made clearer which PKGBUILD to use

I have a GeForce GT 730 and used the kernel-6.4.patch provided. I changed the patch number and its sha512sum in the "sources" of the PKGBUILD and the .SRCINFO

The way I do it is disable my display manager service so I can reboot without X starting and then do the makepkg to install the driver with the patch and it worked.

The same kernel-6.4.patch is here: https://gist.github.com/joanbm/77f0650d45747b9a4dc8e330ade2bf5c

I have cloned Nvidia folder, try to use patch from ubuntu but 1. SHA512 don't work. 2.I chaged sum but pkgbuild ask me what file file I want to patch.

Hmmm.... 1. From where I have to clone this folder? 2. AUR is Arch repo, I'm using Arch with kernel 6.4.1, command - makepkg (PKGBUILD is for this ommand, no?) All commands are executed in a 470.182.03/build folder with nvidia-470xx-utils.install as simlink of NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-470.199.02.run

@SinClaus: This is the content of my folder where I build the package. You need to clone the repository and then modify the PKGBUILD file with the elements you see on the given example.

8,0K kernel-6.3.patch
4,0K kernel-6.4.patch
 27M nvidia-470xx-dkms-470.199.02-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
4,0K nvidia-470xx.rules
192M nvidia-470xx-utils-470.199.02-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
4,0K nvidia-470xx-utils.install
4,0K nvidia-470xx-utils.sysusers
4,0K nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf
261M NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-470.199.02.run
 27M opencl-nvidia-470xx-470.199.02-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
 16K PKGBUILD

At this point, I don't know a lot of useful things, like: + what OS are you on + what kernel version are you using as target and what other kernels are on the machine + what commands you executed before getting the error message.

Without these elements, impossible to know what is happening.

PGBUILD cant find nvidia-drm-outputclass.install in nvidia catalogs, me too.

@circl: No worries! The decision is not mine ... I'm waiting, the same as you are ...

@SoftExpert Once again I apologize for the multiple requests, I only requests orphan not becoming the maintainer, because I thought it was similar to the voting system on the AUR, I have made a duplicate report to yours, sorry
