The package nvidia-beta-dkms depends on version =550.40.07 of nvidia-utils-beta, but the most recent version is 550.40.07-1.

EDIT: @dbermond My apologies. It was my first time installing a non-standard 'NVIDIA' driver and I was unaware that I would have to manually remove nvidia-utils and its dependencies.

@dbermond Well hot damn! I thought I was going to have to wait for Nvidia to fix this, but apparently not! Thanks for the quick fix! Can confirm everything works fine on 6.7.3 now.

@urbenlegend Should be fixed by now. Thanks for reporting.

DKMS compile seems to be unsuccessful with 6.7.3

Strange how this happened on a point release as this was working perfectly fine with 6.7.2. Downgrading works fine for now. Is this something that Nvidia just needs to patch with a new beta driver?

EDIT: Yes it is. https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/linux-6-7-3-545-29-06-550-40-07-error-modpost-gpl-incompatible-module-nvidia-ko-uses-gpl-only-symbol-rcu-read-lock/280908/22

It would be great if -beta packages update quicker. It's probably less of a concern for non-beta packages but not having -beta updated defies the purpose of having -beta in the first place. Instead of testing -beta and reporting bugs, all the bugs will go into release.

Works good on my system @dbermond and @milkii your comments helped me so thanks for that

I'm sorry but I don't get the purpose of this package. Why not offer the Vulkan beta driver instead?

@milkii You need to install all related packages at the same time.

:: installing nvidia-utils-beta (525.78.01-1) breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils-beta=525.60.11' required by nvidia-beta-dkms

edit: ah i see they've all gone up to .78, i'll go back to the regular package. hopefully the horiffic external monitor bug(s) are fixed now..
