Arch Linux User Repository

Please don't flag this package out-of-date unless a new version has been released by NVIDIA.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

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

@loup correkt me if I'm wrong: You are using up-to-date Arch with systemd v256 and this NVIDIA drivers with rodrigorc patch and you can suspend/hibernate your laptop without any issues? That is correct?

@duht Thank's for such a nice comment ! As i said " i am way over my head on this " For the answer to your question i do not have a problem =1 + i am using rodrigorc patch =1 total 2 you have a problem = 0 you are using another patch = 1 total 1 ....... 2 being grater than 1, i would at least try.

By the way github systemd readme note specificy at line 224 that gcc is required to bild systemd. link:https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/README From rodrogorc link: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html the section title: Turning errors back into warnings is from where i am coming from.

@loup what are you talking about? We're talking about "fix for systemd 256 suspend/hibernate issues" not about gcc-14/rodrigorc patch that was added over a month ago to this package...
@vnctdj they fixed it in current nvidia-utils from extra link.

@ duht

Hi, maybe for the time being until vnctdj answer your request, you could test rodrigorc patch. I am using this patch since kernel 6.9 without any problem at all. I am way over my head on this, but i suspect that his approach could solve your problem.

Good luck

@vnctdj strange thing- contrary to what @Foxos claims it doesn't work for me. It works after moving config files from /lib/systemd/ to /lib/systemd/system/. I think the second one is a proper directory for config files, because corresponding service files are also in that dir.
So please correct target directory for configs to /usr/lib/systemd/system and everything should be ok.

@vnctdj Just tested and can confirm it's OK.

@duht I've added the fix, I hope it's OK given that I can't test it at the moment.

After update to systemd v256 system freezes upon systemctl suspend/hibernate link.
A fix is pending in the current nvidia-utils package from testing.
@vnctdj could you add this fix for this package too? I tested it on my setup and now I can suspend my laptop without problems.

@vnctdj Thank you for your updated PKGBUILD. It built, installed and operates correctly against linux and -hardened, both currently at: 6.9.1.

@canolucas and @drankinatty Thank you for your 6.9 patch research efforts.

Cheers
