Please don't flag this package out-of-date unless a new version has been released by NVIDIA.

The DKMS package guidelines are explicit that linux-headers should not be a dependency of any DKMS package.

As a concrete example of why including that as a hard dependency is a bad idea, what happens when linux is not an installed kernel?

PACKAGE NEEDS LONG TERM MAINTAINER

I have adopted the 390xx packages to keep them secure. I do not run any 390xx hardware so will not notice any breakages and cannot test any changes.

Until such time as someone else steps up to maintain these packages - ideally someone who actually has 390xx hardware - I have to rely on you to tell me what changes are needed.

Don't expect a response if you post only "this doesn't work", and do not email me to complain about the package not working!

Use this forum thread for discussion: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1946926

A binary package is also available in my kernel-lts unofficial user repository.

linux-headers should be a hard dependency of this because installation fails without them. Dkms is a dependency of the package, but the linux-headers are only an optional dependency of dkms, so it is possible that this package is installed without the linux-headers being present, leading to a failure.

@duht: See https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/nvidia-390xx-utils/#comment-836318 and check if it can help you as well.

@all: I am using an ancient desktop PC equipped with a GeForce GTX 560 card, and since kernel 5.16-rc4, there are no problems with suspend here.

Anyone having a complete broken xorg after last update? i'm getting a blinking cursor and only TTY access. The driver shows loaded lspci...

Thank you @jonathon.
I thought this bug is only related to this poorly supported nvidia-390xx driver in conjunction with newest xorg-server, like previous ABI bug (there is no problem with nouveau), but it looks like a general xserver issue. Thanks again.

jonathon commented on 2021-12-20 23:59 (UTC)

Yes: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/73075 . Fix is imminent.

Also, an issue with Xorg isn't an issue with this package. Please use the forum for this sort of thing.

After upgrading xorg-server to v21.1.2 I can't resume my laptop from suspend.
On nouveau everything works fine.
Downgrading server to 21.1.1 resolves the problem so issue is related to nvidia-390xx driver and newest xorg-server.
I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem?

@jonathon 30-nvidia-ignoreabi.conf is not needed with 390.147

deliodc commented on 2021-11-17 20:21 (UTC)

Thanks a lot @Scarlet and @Juggrnaut

I was have the error message:

primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) NVIDIA: Use the -ignoreABI option to override this check.

The solution for me was edit the file /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia like the recommendation of @Juggrnaut and add in the Section "Device" zone, the follow lines:

Section "Device"
    ...
    BusID "PCI:01:00:0"
    Option "AllowExternalGpus" "true"  # If the GPU is external
    ...
EndSection

+info

And at the end of the file, add the follow section like the recommendation of @Scarlet:

Section "ServerFlags"
        Option "IgnoreABI" "1"
EndSection
