The current nvidia-gfxG05 builds fine with Kernel:HEAD.
and with the attached patch applied and conditioned correctly, it even builds/ runs fine *including* nvidia-uvm.ko, recovering from the lost CUDA issue.
All I can say is that seeing a "fix" like this presented on two mailing lists devoted to open source projects makes me very sad.
I'm very sorry, if I hurt your feelings. For one, I'm very aware of the topicality of this modification. In no way, this is a fix, just a dump and bloody work around for the fallout of two fighting parties (Romans vs. Gauls). Here, it solves the problem of using Blender effectively (similar to those, that run it on windows and *laugh* at us..). This hurts as well, and effectively damages *our* reputation for a serious and valid windows replacement (again). I've been in this fight for more than two decades now, and we didn't won much terrain in this respect, unfortunately. I'm glad, that Christoph Hellweg was able to raise some attention by delicate ringing, but as Jiri initially pointed out, a cure is a week away at the very least. I expect it more likely in the range of several weeks.
From my POV, the whole case feels a like a tail trying to wag the dog.
Let's get back to serious work, get 5.9 into TW, and fix the fully open sourced, but awful drbd fallout. Sorry again, Pete -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
