[10:13] <mamarley> soee: NVIDIA 370.23 is out. :)
[10:15]  * mamarley is, of course, working on the package.
[10:19] <soee> it is my job to announce it ;D
[10:22] <mamarley> Sometimes these new major releases can be tricky.  Especially with no changelog posted yet…
[10:24] <soee> hmmm
[10:24] <mamarley> I'm not saying this one is or isn't yet.  Just sometimes they can be.
[10:29] <soee> still it does not include much http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/105855/en-us
[10:31] <mamarley> I don't see anything packaging-relevant in there.
[10:31]  * mamarley crosses fingers.
[10:34] <mamarley> Well, it packages cleanly.  That's a good sign.  Now for the guinea-pigging…
[10:35] <soee> -.-
[10:36] <mamarley> (I haven't uploaded it yet; I need to check if any kernel module patches are necessary.)
[10:52] <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 :)
[10:54] <mamarley> This driver also compiles against Linux 4.7 without a patch.
[10:54] <soee> \o\
[11:45] <ricotz> oh nice :)
[11:45] <ricotz> mamarley, make sure to base it on the current 367 ppa packaging
[11:46] <ricotz> and check if the 4.8 patch still applies
[11:52] <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
[11:53] <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
[11:54]  * mamarley slaps himself around a bit with a large trout.
[11:55] <mamarley> I will let you know when I am ready again.  Sorry.
[11:57] <ricotz> mamarley, didn't you add the ppa yourself? you should have noticed by receiving this update
[12:46] <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.
[12:47] <mamarley> I didn't upload anything to the main PPA though, so no harm done.  I can just re-upload it in staging.
[12:56] <mamarley> The 4.8 patch is definitely still needed.
[13:00] <mamarley> This code uses "goto".  I have a bad feeling that I am about to be attacked by a velociraptor…
[13:54] <mamarley> ricotz: I have uploaded everything to https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages.  It isn't published yet though.
[14:27] <ricotz> mamarley, thanks, will take a look later
[14:27] <ricotz> ... including a test-run
[16:57] <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.
[16:59] <ricotz> if dmks doesnt find a [0] (and so on) it skips patching
[17:00] <mamarley> ricotz: Should I leave the numbers for all the commented-out patches as they are?
[17:07] <ricotz> yes
[17:07] <ricotz> will be back in a few hours
[17:09] <mamarley> I apologize for the error.  The fixed packages are now uploaded.
[19:36] <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.
[19:38] <soee> http://i.imgur.com/QusGYfs.png yes
[20:13] <ricotz> mamarley, looks good
