Arch Linux User Repository

@yosnoop Thank you for pointing this. Fixed.

The link to NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-430.14-no-compat32.run seems to be wrong. ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-430.14/430.14/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-430.14-no-compat32.run

Maybe this? https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/430.14/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-430.14-no-compat32.run

• Important note:

Package nvidia-egl-wayland-beta was dropped since version 430.14-2.

After updating, replace it with egl-wayland from the official repositories with: pacman -Syu egl-wayland

I would like to thank @Det for all his hardwork in maintaining the nvidia beta packages on the AUR during the past years.

You'll be missed in the Arch community. My best wishes in your journey.

I hope you can reconsider using Arch again :)

@Det Thank you for the information. It was very helpful.

@fafryd I pushed an update to include the ray tracing libraries. Thank you for reporting this.

Regarding the paths you mentioned, I prefer to follow the paths currently used by the corresponding official repository package, even though the library name have changed here in the beta version. It's working fine on this way.

I usually diffed the .manifests from the old and new .run's root after any new major release for list of new/updated files (410.57 = [major numbers].[minor ones]).

They mention external changes usually in the changelogs too: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1041820/unix-graphics-announcements-and-news/linux-solaris-and-freebsd-driver-410-57/

Hi dbermond

What is missing:

libnvidia-rtcore.so.410.57 (usr/lib/libnvidia-rtcore.so.410.57) - OPENGL_LIB NATIVE MODULE:raytracing
libnvidia-cbl.so.410.57 (usr/lib/libnvoptix.so.410.57) - OPENGL_LIB NATIVE MODULE:raytracing
libnvoptix.so.410.57 (usr/lib/libnvoptix.so.410.57) - OPENGL_LIB NATIVE MODULE:optix
libnvoptix.so.1 (usr/lib/libnvoptix.so.1 -> libnvoptix.so.410.57) - OPENGL_SYMLINK NATIVE libnvoptix.so.410.57 MODULE:optix

Please consider:

libglxserver_nvidia.so.410.57 (usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglxserver_nvidia.so.410.57) - default library location
libglxserver_nvidia.so (usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglxserver_nvidia.so -> libglxserver_nvidia.so.410.57) - default library location

libglxserver_nvidia.so.* library does not conflict with the xorg-server package

So. Guys. In June 2013, this one guy "Det" once took maintainership over this package. Within those 5 years both Nvidia and Arch have both come a long way, forming a lot of fun obstacles for me to tackle nights over. And Nvidia, it has been just one group of packages out of maaany many in times to come I've pressed "adopt" on over the years. Boy, I'm even a maintainer in the outstanding Wiki. But times change things, as does 5 years.

Fact is, I don't use Arch anymore, I maintain mostly what's left for fun and for "work" I guess. For taking over that responsibility and making that pledge to deliver to the very best of my timed capabilities.

But this is the day I forfeit that responsibility. When I move on and this thing stays behind. But worry not. Another talent will lead on.

For the fine times with this package.

For the fantastic memories with this distribution.

Thank you, and..

May Arch live forever.
