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.

Working on my GT 710 with kernel 6.14.1. Thanks Juan and SoftEcpert!

I noticed that Juan provided a patch, so I updated the release to include it.

Again, a heartfelt "thank you", Juan !

Hi @lighterowl and @injiniero; thanks for the patch and, respectively, for trying it and confirming that it works.

@everybody: I pushed the v7.97 of the package; please test it and give feedback.

I can confirm that lighterowl's patch works for my old GeForce GTX 760 with 6.14 kernel. I hope that SoftExpert publish that patch.

Thank you

Doesn't compile out-of-the-box with 6.14, thankfully the fix is simple and amounts to ifdefing out a removed field from a struct, see https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules/pull/783 for a link to the relevant Linux commit.

Here's the patch I applied locally to build :

Can confirm nvidia-smi, vkcube, and wine+dxvk still work OK with my GT 645M under 6.14.

@cerberus1746, I’m also getting the GPU has fallen off the bus error, just like in your logs, along with spontaneous reboots on my desktop GTX 770. This happens with any kernel starting from 6.7 and later. I’m sticking with the 6.6 kernel since it's the last version that works flawlessly with this driver (at least for me), and it's still receiving updates until 2026.

While some users report that the driver still works on newer kernels, there’s no guarantee this will remain the case. If you plan to keep using this driver, I’d recommend sticking with an older kernel.

Before anything, the video card works in Windows. It is not dead, the errors might make you think it is, but it isn't. And also nouveau works, but I need vulkan, and vulkan-nouveau does not support my video card, I tried, even with BROKEN_DRIVER flag

Any time I need to use my video card in my optimus laptop the nvidia driver crashes.

The full logs can be found here: https://pastebin.com/xgKUrveJ

The full specs of the computer are here: https://icecat.biz/en/p/dell/w540210in8/inspiron-laptops-14r+-5421-21966017.html

I tried installing the driver 430 but for some reason the driver dkms build fails with the current 6.12.17-1-lts

Following or not this guide makes no difference: https://github.com/korvahannu/arch-nvidia-drivers-installation-guide
