Hi all, sorry for necroposting. I think there is still left something to do. It could be asking NVIDIA for license exception and setting up an NVIDIA-based VM/rig; or offering them the help setting up an openQA instance for them, etc., etc. The thing is it cannot be done by outsiders like me and fellow openSUSE users, it should be initiated by SUSE representatives, in order to have a slightest chance to succeed.

Hi Stefan, Dominique & all,
The recent kernel v4.14.9 release breaks NVIDIA driver. There's a patch available on https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1028016/linux/patch-for-compiling -v384-98-modules-with-linux-v4-14-9-/, do you mind applying it?
Thanks. It's now being applied.
Going further, would be the openQA test that tries to install NVIDIA proprietary driver be ever accepted to general test suite? Or is there an OBS project with "working-with-nvidia" kernel packages? Sure, these suggestions are off top of the head, probably there is a better way to prevent "nvidia driver doesn't compile for 3 snapshots in a row, older kernels were just purged by purge-kernels so X doesn't run at all" case.
I'm not aware of such an openQA test. Do we run on openQA on real hardware with NVIDIA card meanwhile? There is no VM with NVIDIA GPU emulation available.
No, see https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2018-01/msg00026.html
Also as I learned the NVIDIA license is only for personal use and therefore not making it easy for us to let openQA test it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
