@SoftExpert have members of Arch been notified?

SinClaus commented on 2023-07-07 13:28 (UTC)

O, yes :-) No maintainer - no updates...

SoftExpert commented on 2023-07-07 13:17 (UTC)

@SinClaus: nope! for now no one amongst ourselves has the right to update this repository. That's why we are waiting for the new maintainer to be selected.

SinClaus commented on 2023-07-07 07:33 (UTC)

This situation will be with all updates?

SinClaus commented on 2023-07-07 07:00 (UTC)

@SoftExpert thanks worked everything fine like magic

@SinClaus: dont copy the repo from nvidia copy from this aur and create a kernel-6.4.patch file and add the contents that was mentioned

SinClaus commented on 2023-07-07 06:03 (UTC)

I'm cloned repo from nvidida with all files but without patch 6.4. When I use patch from here, pkgbuild ask me what it have to patch. I don't know, maybe wrong path in patch, or another bug...

SoftExpert commented on 2023-07-07 05:15 (UTC)

@ukase: You need the patch from this comment

@SinClaus:

you can clone this repository or you can start from scratch
the PKGBUILD file references the following files, in the same folder, and there are no symlinks involved; you have to use the PKGBUILD from the previous comment
nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf

Section "OutputClass"
    Identifier "nvidia"
    MatchDriver "nvidia-drm"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"

NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-470.199.02.run <= will be downloaded by the package
kernel-6.4.patch <= you already got its contents from a previous comment
you can execute makepkg -g to obtain the output for the checksums collection; then you can replace in the PKGBUILD file the corresponding sums
now you can run makepkg

Good luck !

edited: fixed typo, made clearer which PKGBUILD to use
