For the beginners in need of assistance, first take a look at this recommended guide https://github.com/korvahannu/arch-nvidia-drivers-installation-guide - maybe it helps to solve the issues your are having with this version of the driver.

The majority of patches used in this package are provided by Joan Bruguera to whom we owe a tremendous depth of gratitude !

There is also the repository shared by phobos1641, where he has gathered all the patches that work for his configuration.

@SoftExpert I can also confirm everything is working again with my GeForce GTX 680. Thank you for the fast response!

Tested Vulkan and OpenGL games on linux-6.19.6 on my GT 740, seems to work great.

Thanks a lot for maintaining this driver!

Since I regularly boot both "ancient" kernels--i.e. the 6.1 SLTS kernel with projected support until 2033--and newer ones, along with my own modified and built versions thereof, including clang built ones, I maintain my own PKGBUILD with a number of patches. I've nicked bits of the 6.19 patch so the driver builds and runs on that version too by my still brief testing.

I'm not sure if any of the patches in mine would be of any use to anyone else, but in either case, here is my repository for it:

The 6.15 patch has been updated as well upstream.
But as noted before by CvR_XX and asyync1024. It doesn't work here either with same log errors.
Edit: I've just added not applied the patches. I guess all is fine. Joanbm/upstream confirmed 6.19.6 is working.

@SoftExpert

GTX 660, linux 6.19.6. The latest patch is holding up well. Thanks!

SoftExpert commented on 2026-03-07 17:44 (UTC)

I have released the version including the patches for kernel 6.19.x.

Please test and provide feedback.

Until the maintainer updates the package it seems that in manjaro it already contains the required patches. So you can get them from there and edit the PKGBUILD locally to include it.

Very very rough instructions, assuming ~/builds/nvidia-470xx-utils/ is where you have the local AUR package cloned.

git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/extra/nvidia-470xx-utils.git manjaro-470xx
cp manjaro-470xx/nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.19-part1.patch ~/builds/nvidia-470xx-utils/
cp manjaro-470xx/nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.19-part2.patch ~/builds/nvidia-470xx-utils/
cd ~/builds/nvidia-470xx-utils

Now edit PKGBUILD.

In source=(), add these two lines right after the existing nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.17.patch line:

"nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.19-part1.patch"
"nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.19-part2.patch"

Then in prepare(), add two more patch-application lines right after the existing 6.17 patch line. It should look roughly like this:

patch -p1 -i "${srcdir}/nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.17.patch"
patch -p1 -i "${srcdir}/nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.19-part1.patch"
patch -p1 -i "${srcdir}/nvidia-470xx-fix-linux-6.19-part2.patch"

Then regenerate checksums with updpkgsums

And finally do a fresh rebuild

rm -rf src pkg *.pkg.tar.*
makepkg -fis

It worked for me ™
