For the beginners in need of assistance, first take a look at this recommended guide https://github.com/korvahannu/arch-nvidia-drivers-installation-guide - maybe it helps to solve the issues your are having with this version of the driver.

  • Stock 470.141.10 does not support Linux 6.0, compilation fails on ACPI stuff.
  • Using the kernel-6.0.patch against 470.141.10 results in the module loading on 6.0.6, but failing to run with same messages as previously :
[   17.367232] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: Failed to copy vbios to system memory.
[   17.367356] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: RmInitAdapter failed! (0x30:0xffff:874)
[   17.367404] NVRM: GPU 0000:01:00.0: rm_init_adapter failed, device minor number 0
  • Applying the Debian patches to 470.141.03 makes the module load and run properly on 6.0.6.
  • 470.141.10 with Debian patches seems to work okay as well.

This was tested on my Lenovo Z500 and a GeForce GT 645M. Offload (prime-run glxgears), Vulkan (vkcube) as well as nvidia-smi are working as expected.

PKGBUILDs including the Debian patches are here :

That said, I don't think running 470.141.10 provides any value over the current version. I seem to remember some differences being there between "regular" and "datacenter" (Tesla) drivers so perhaps it's better to stay at .03. My memory might be wrong here, though, so if anybody has more actual information on this, please speak up.

A new version of the driver is out 470.141.10 Also, there are some extra patches that could solve additional issues. With the current patches I was able to run all kernel 6.0.x updates without issues - maybe the new version will be more stable for a larger set of configurations ?

Updated my system only to find out this driver doesn't like 6.0, I guess thats on me for not checking first but its still a little annoying. I was able to fall back to the nouveau driver with my old GT 730 to get back to my desktop, but its not ideal. Hopefully the issue is fixed soon. The GT 730 does NOT like the nouveau driver (main issue is screen tearing, but still)

On my debian sid box everything is fine with the latest patches applied by the debian maintainer. With kernel 6.0 offloading is working fine as well as graphic acceleration. The patches are available here: https://sources.debian.org/src/nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-470/470.141.03-3/debian/module/debian/patches/ I'm not an expert thus I don't really know how to apply them correctly.

@BlackIkeEagle yay worked fine for me :)

@elppans: Victory, it works! Actually I realized that I was using (for forgotten reasons) the pahole-git package instead of pahole. After switching to it, it works apparently correctly on my desktop.

neuromante commented on 2022-10-18 10:49 (UTC)

@ChrispyChris Try: __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia glxinfo | less If it's working fine, otherwise that means that the driver is loaded but it won't give you the accelerated graphics

jonathon I see you mentioning it doesn't fully support kernel 6.0, however on my desktop after applying the patch, all seems well. Should people that used the patch be good to continue upgrading kernels and just keep an eye on this package, or what?

Nestor_013 commented on 2022-10-16 08:49 (UTC)

@elppans: Thanks for replying. Unfortunately it didn't work. I'll stay with lts for now, with the hope of a solution in a near future. For the record I have a GT720.

+1 for cloning the GitLab repo suggested by @BlackIkeEagle. Worked like a charm on my rig with 6.0.1-arch2-1. Not a laptop though so can't speak to the backlight issue.
