| mamarley | soee: NVIDIA 370.23 is out. :) | 10:13 |
|---|---|---|
| * mamarley is, of course, working on the package. | 10:15 | |
| soee | it is my job to announce it ;D | 10:19 |
| mamarley | Sometimes these new major releases can be tricky. Especially with no changelog posted yet… | 10:22 |
| soee | hmmm | 10:24 |
| mamarley | I'm not saying this one is or isn't yet. Just sometimes they can be. | 10:24 |
| soee | still it does not include much http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/105855/en-us | 10:29 |
| mamarley | I don't see anything packaging-relevant in there. | 10:31 |
| * mamarley crosses fingers. | 10:31 | |
| mamarley | Well, it packages cleanly. That's a good sign. Now for the guinea-pigging… | 10:34 |
| soee | -.- | 10:35 |
| mamarley | (I haven't uploaded it yet; I need to check if any kernel module patches are necessary.) | 10:36 |
| mamarley | soee: It appears to work. :) Now I just have to get the packaging ready for the rest of the Ubuntu releases, then I can upload. | 10:52 |
| soee | than i can test :) | 10:52 |
| mamarley | This driver also compiles against Linux 4.7 without a patch. | 10:54 |
| soee | \o\ | 10:54 |
| ricotz | oh nice :) | 11:45 |
| ricotz | mamarley, make sure to base it on the current 367 ppa packaging | 11:45 |
| ricotz | and check if the 4.8 patch still applies | 11:46 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Already based on the PPA packaging, and do you mean the 4.7 patch? We don't have a 4.8 patch yet. | 11:52 |
| mamarley | Regardless, the 4.7 patch is no longer necessary. | 11:52 |
| ricotz | if so, you didnt base it on the current packaging | 11:52 |
| mamarley | Oh, you must have uploaded something more recently that I didn't see. Darn. | 11:53 |
| * mamarley starts over. | 11:53 | |
| ricotz | updated it last week | 11:53 |
| ricotz | nvidia-graphics-drivers-367 - 367.35-0ubuntu2~gpu16.10.2 (changes file) ricotz 2016-08-11 | 11:53 |
| * mamarley slaps himself around a bit with a large trout. | 11:54 | |
| mamarley | I will let you know when I am ready again. Sorry. | 11:55 |
| ricotz | mamarley, didn't you add the ppa yourself? you should have noticed by receiving this update | 11:57 |
| mamarley | ricotz: I do have that PPA enabled, but I also have my staging PPA enabled, which has 367.36.02 in it. Therefore, I never saw the update. | 12:46 |
| mamarley | I didn't upload anything to the main PPA though, so no harm done. I can just re-upload it in staging. | 12:47 |
| mamarley | The 4.8 patch is definitely still needed. | 12:56 |
| mamarley | This code uses "goto". I have a bad feeling that I am about to be attacked by a velociraptor… | 13:00 |
| mamarley | ricotz: I have uploaded everything to https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages. It isn't published yet though. | 13:54 |
| ricotz | mamarley, thanks, will take a look later | 14:27 |
| ricotz | ... including a test-run | 14:27 |
| ricotz | mamarley, so, you forgot to tweak the 4.8 patch-number in dkms_nvidia.conf.in which must start with [0] | 16:57 |
| mamarley | Oh, sorry, I didn't realize that was required. I will fix that. | 16:57 |
| ricotz | if dmks doesnt find a [0] (and so on) it skips patching | 16:59 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Should I leave the numbers for all the commented-out patches as they are? | 17:00 |
| ricotz | yes | 17:07 |
| ricotz | will be back in a few hours | 17:07 |
| mamarley | I apologize for the error. The fixed packages are now uploaded. | 17:09 |

| mamarley | ricotz: soee states in another channel that he has tested 370.23 and that it works for him. I have also tested it on two systems and not had a problem. | 19:36 |
| soee | http://i.imgur.com/QusGYfs.png yes | 19:38 |
| ricotz | mamarley, looks good | 20:13 |
