mamarley | ricotz: Looks like the first nvidia 358.xx beta is out. I am going to start with packaging nvidia-settings, only because I have no idea what the official procedure for packaging a new major release of the drivers themselves is. I have done it a few times, but like everything else I was doing it was probably wrong. | 18:04 |
---|---|---|
ricotz | mamarley, nice, there are probably some more delicate changes which needs some packaging adjustments, but I can't look at it today, maybe tomorrow | 18:23 |
mamarley | I will do my best and at least get an orig.tar.gz uploaded so you don't have to wait around for that. | 18:26 |
ricotz | hehe, I can upload it too just take a bit longer ;) | 18:27 |
mamarley | ricotz: nvidia-settings packages are up: https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages | 18:48 |
mamarley | And 358.09 actually packaged cleanly using the debian/ directory from 355.11. Let me see if it will actually install... | 18:51 |
ricotz | mamarley, did you read the changelog? | 18:55 |
ricotz | https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/884727 | 18:56 |
mamarley | About nvidia-modeset? Yeah, I saw that. I am going to see if I can get that compiling with dkms next. | 18:57 |
mamarley | I am just trying to get it working one step at a time. | 18:57 |
ricotz | ok | 18:58 |
mamarley | I have nvidia-modeset compiling with DKMS now too. | 19:20 |
mamarley | I may very well have done something wrong, but hopefully this will at least save you a bit of time tomorrow. | 19:20 |
mamarley | ricotz: So the 358.09 package I uploaded to my staging PPA works, but it is necessary to manually load the nvidia-modeset module before it will work. I will troubleshoot that, but I need to go do something else at the moment. | 19:45 |
