tks,
And what happens with the latest kernel 4.20.2-2? Same problem? BC -- God created war so that Americans can learn geography. Mark Twain -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

With out-of-kernel drivers, there are always problems with kernel API changes. The first error in your log is tmp/selfgz4325/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.87/kernel/nvidia/os-interface.c:1700:5: error: unknown type name ˜ipmi_user_t™ ipmi_user_t p_user; // ptr to ipmi_msghandler user structure ^~~~~~~~~~~ The change that is causing that problem is "Change ipmi_user_t to struct ipmi_user *" You need to prepare a patch following the nVidia instructions that will change that line to struct ipmi_user *p_user; // ptr to ipmi_msghandler user structure Larry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

tmp/selfgz4325/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.87/kernel/nvidia/os-interface.c:1700:5: error: unknown type name ˜ipmi_user_t™ ipmi_user_t p_user; // ptr to ipmi_msghandler user structure ^~~~~~~~~~~
The change that is causing that problem is "Change ipmi_user_t to struct ipmi_user *"
You need to prepare a patch following the nVidia instructions that will change that line to
struct ipmi_user *p_user; // ptr to ipmi_msghandler user structure
I do not know how to make a patch for this, or a patch period. but I did extrace the ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.87.run file and edit os-interface.c, replaced "ipmi_user_t" with "struct ipmi_user *" and changed the line to read as you suggest. I now have kernel-default-4.20.0-1.5.x86_64 running with nvidia 390.87 driver. since it doesn't see there will be any update in the nvidia driver for my ancient card, the present status will suffice until another kernel API change. and then I will again require assistance. thankyou Larry Finger. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
