From the release notes : 'nvidia-modeset.ko does not provide any new user-visible functionality or interfaces to third party applications. However, in a later release, nvidia-modeset.ko will be used as a basis for the modesetting interface provided by the kernel's direct rendering manager (DRM).' So as of now, putting it in the initramfs would provide no actual use

So is the new kernel module intended by loaded via modules-load.d or wrapped into the initramfs? I'll give it a go either way and I knew I was overlooking something obvious that's what I get for skimming patch notes.

I changed the PKGBUILD internals quite a lot, because the previous pushd/eval/popd (x2) thing was just a mess: - old: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=nvidia-beta-dkms&id=2ffc2341789ed6392a267d3f1023af6c742f79ae - new: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=nvidia-beta-dkms

Should work now.

lol, Det beat me to it. ;)

yeah, seeing some issues on my end too. this likely is related to this in the changelog: "Added a new kernel module, nvidia-modeset.ko. This new driver component works in conjunction with the nvidia.ko kernel module to program the display engine of the GPU." (https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/92712/en-us) was getting some "FATAL: kernel module nvidia-modeset not found" or whatever the syntax is in the journal.

Seems like you didn't include the new nvidia-modeset.ko?

There appears to be an issue with EDID and metamode detection with this version of the nvidia drivers; I updated from the previous version of this package and had a non-working system; rolling back from these to those in the core repo has me up and running again but I typically run the beta drivers. Relevant Xorg logs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12785789/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/12785793/ *Note: in the second paste I had manually defined my metamodes in my Xorg.conf for my second seat; this was an attempt to get things working on the current version of this package. This did not fix things.

@juston-li This update fixes the 4.3 compatibility issues as well, bumping up to <4.4 now
