Hi again, I just upgrade my system and the driver from AUR is working well, here is the proof:

$ cpu-x -D

Now can you please tell me why I can't build the same package from my computer and getting this error:

==> Entering fakeroot environment... chmod: cannot access '/home/visious/Downloads/Nvidia-340.108/Nvidia-340xx-dkms/pkg': No such file or directory /usr/bin/fakeroot: line 178: 65206 User defined signal 1 FAKEROOTKEY=$FAKEROOTKEY LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$PATHS" LD_PRELOAD="$FAKEROOT_LIB" "$@"

What should I do to fix it? Here is the PKGBUILD: https://pastebin.com/ypZAUE07

Hi! I have successful manual installation from https://github.com/archlinux-jerry/nvidia-340xx

but have an error from pacman-manager installer on Manjaro:

The new patch is working with kernel 6.0.1.

Hi everyone. Can you please tell me why the driver from AUR is working and from my computer is not working? I have edited the PKGBUILD a little bit. Here it is:

https://paste.rs/x0o.bash

Now I'm getting this error:

==> Entering fakeroot environment... chmod: cannot access '/home/visious/Downloads/Nvidia-340.108/Nvidia-340xx-dkms/pkg': No such file or directory /usr/bin/fakeroot: line 178: 3298711 User defined signal 1 FAKEROOTKEY=$FAKEROOTKEY LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$PATHS" LD_PRELOAD="$FAKEROOT_LIB" "$@"

I don't know what does means this.

@JerryXiao The patch for kernel 6.0 works. Thanks.

It's working! Thanks @JerryXiao!

Here is how I made it work on a fresh Manjaro install:

# install prerequisites
sudo pacman -S yay patch make linux60 linux60-headers

# [optional] clean the aur cache, N, Y, Y
yay -Scc

# install aur prerequisites
yay -S nvidia-340xx-utils lib32-nvidia-340xx-utils

# remove linux61
yay -R linux61

# restart
sudo restart

# link lib modules to /usr/src/linux
cd /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/ | echo $(uname -r) \
  | sudo tee /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/version > /dev/null \
  | sudo ln -s /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build /usr/src/linux

# remove conflicting folder before installing the nvidia-340xx package
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extramodules/

# install the drivers
yay -S nvidia-340xx

# copy nvidia xorg config
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf /usr/share/nvidia-340xx/20-nvidia.conf

# restart
sudo reboot

@JerryXiao Yes is working!! I Try dkms version and is working so far with kernel 6.0

Thanks, you work is very appreciated.!!

Hi @JerryXiao It works well here with the (standard/"no dkms" version). Checked with the standard 6.0.1 kernel and the system upgraded to the current packages. I tested with glxgears, an old opengl game, youtube videos, and vdpau using mplayer. Checked dmesg, journalctl and xorg.log. All seems ok.
