I've asked the kernel developer responsible for permission to patch the kernel source making nvidia work again. Just uploaded 3.6.11-rt30-2 to aur. Please let me know if there are some problems with it, since I don't have the possibility of testing nvidia right now...

Either of the fixes would potentially break the GPL ? I shall wait until the next rt patch is out before updating the driver.

I've switched to nouveau in the meantime. But the missing power management leaves for high temperatures. Not so cool ;) Let's wait and see :>

I've investigated the problem. There was a code change that makes it impossible to build nvidia with -rt30. The change was unintentional and will be fixed in the next -rt patch. The 2 ways that i know of to fix it would either entitle changing EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL to EXPORT_SYMBOL for __init_swait_head(), or changing the license of the nvidia driver to GPL. Neither which are really acceptable ways of doing it. In the meantime just use -rt25, hopefully we'll have an update soon.

@jhernberg: unfortunately 3.6.11-rt25 does not work with my laptop. 30 does :> @Morgan_Cox: A fix would be most welcome!

There was no change in the linux-rt config file. I think there were some changes in the rt source though, that mandates an updated patch for nvidia-rt. For someone that got stuck, either manually edit the linux-rt script and install 3.6.11-rt25, or add the following to your pacman.conf and install a binary linux-rt from the repo. It's still on 3.6.11-rt25 in order not to break the nvidia-rt driver: [archaudio-production] Server = http://repos.archaudio.org/$repo/$arch

I am now getting the same error. There must have been a change in the config used in the linux-rt package as I haven't changed the PKGBUILD and the same version of my package compiled fine in January. I'll look into this soon...

hmm, it still fails to build for me. Got the same error during compilation. I've added the patch snippet to the end of the included patch, but it still fails with the same error... oO Any clues?

I get the following compilation error with current linux-rt from AUR: FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module nvidia.ko uses GPL-only symbol '__init_swait_head' changing the module license fixes the issue. An alternative would be to disable module license checking in the kernel... --- a/nv.c 2013-02-22 16:47:25.294362683 +0100 +++ b/nv.c 2013-02-22 16:47:44.774132075 +0100 @@ -16,7 +16,7 @@ #include "rmil.h" #if defined(MODULE_LICENSE) -MODULE_LICENSE("NVIDIA"); +MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); #endif #if defined(MODULE_INFO) MODULE_INFO(supported, "external");

unflagged.... eikakot: Perhaps the local mirror/ftp server were down at the time? The ftp address works for me (but is fairly slow)
