FUCK!!! 470 and 390 branches exits drom installation with error "struct drm_driver has no member named dumb_destroy". Do you check your package?

@dough.mean: depnding on the kernel flavor (xanmod, liquorix, vanilla), the kernel headers might contain (or not) the required declarations. The patch makes optional a line of code that can prevent compiling. There were quite a few mentions on Nvidia repository ( 526, 501 ); also on Launchpad 2025266.

@SoftExpert

It turns out that I just had to uninstall the package, modify PKGBUILD to use 470.199.02, remove the patches and reinstall again.

There might be additional packages, like lib32-nvidia-470xx-utils and lib32-opencl-nvidia-470xx.

It seems that the lib32 one was already updated to 470.199.02 earlier upstream. Not sure what the opencl packages are supposed to be though. paru -Qs opencl yields only ocl-icd and lib32-ocl-icd.

DKMS will nob behave with 6.4.x kernel, unless the patch was used (it declares a function that is otherwise missing).

I'm on 6.4, and no issues so far. Tested some applications that hard depends on Vulkan and it's working perfectly fine.

@dough.mean: nvidia-470xx-utils builds 3 packages: - nvidia-470xx-utils - nvidia-470xx-dkms - opencl-nvidia-470xx

All of them need to be installed on your system, based on the same version of the driver. There might be additional packages, like lib32-nvidia-470xx-utils and lib32-opencl-nvidia-470xx. All of them must be based on the same Nvidia version. DKMS will nob behave with 6.4.x kernel, unless the patch was used (it declares a function that is otherwise missing).

@cysp74 I tried your method of simply removing the patch, but I'm getting this error when installing:

warning: cannot resolve "nvidia-470xx-utils=470.199.02", a dependency of "nvidia-470xx-dkms"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
      nvidia-470xx-dkms

EDIT: I had to remove the nvidia-470xx-dkms package I had installed, reinstall the new modified package and now everything is working fine.

I think @cysp74 is right, if you're on kernel 6.4, you don't need any additional patches to have 470.199.02 working.

@circl @SoftExpert I was able to build and install the package successfully. Thank you so much for your help!

circl commented on 2023-07-05 10:30 (UTC)

Or use makepkg -g @simplecard

Basically, take the sha512sum of the kernel-6.3.patch file and replace with it the last checksum in the PKGBUILD file

@SoftExpert I cloned this repo, replaced your PKGBUILD and created your patch file. After running makepkg it fails:

@simplecard: You are missing the fix provided by the patch for the kernel 6.4. Please review the comments from the past
