TODO:
Patch for kernel 6.19
Patch for kernel 7.0

Known issues:
Wine doesn't work on 6.12+ with kernel module loaded? (Really irritating, working on it...)
Patch for kernel 6.12 may require KMS to be enabled.

Let me know if something breaks!

Getting a breaking issue with the 6.19 kernel. Looks like it's still on the TODO. I have a make.log with the errors in it if that would help.

@AcidBase The fbdev parameter was introduced in Nvidia 545. Earlier versions do not provide an fbdev driver, relying on efifb or vesafb.

What kernel are you running? Which Wayland compositor?

This part of the NVIDIA wiki page was removed at some point: For NVIDIA driver version < 545 or when not also using nvidia_drm.fbdev=1, the nvidia_drm.modeset=1 option must be set through kernel parameters, in order to disable simpledrm[1] (for more information, refer to FS#73720).

There's a problem in this driver where the NVIDIA fbdev is missing at least on my card(GTX960)

Booting with the kernel parameter nvidia_drm.modeset=1 and nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 gives the error "nvidia_drm: unknown parameter 'fbdev' ignored"

Unfortunately this is required for things to work well, for example wayland can't start.

I've adopted this package, as I'm using it on my main system and it was orphaned semi-recently. I also added a patch for kernel 6.8.

I got tired of using Linux 6.1-lts, so I changed the version in the PKGBUILD from 525.116.04 to 525.147.05 (the current version) (and updated the checksum), and that resulted in a version that works with Linux 6.7 without issue.

I'm sharing this just in case it helps anyone, and because it looks like this package may never get updated.

@Vrakfall can you set me up as one of the comaintainers? It has been a long time since last updated. We need another X11 configuration for hybrid gpus devices, and we should patch for linux 6.5 as vpancora mentioned

Hi, there is a bug that prevents the use of linux 6.5 with 525.125.04 version but the 525.125.06 driver fix it.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/2028165

When will the new version be released? Tks

Thanks for this package @Vrakfall. It seems to work well with the latest 525 release:
