With 5.9 or higher? Without patching the kernel?
Yes, of course. Just plain TW kernel.
Thanks. Just learned that Nvidia's 455 series seems to have a workaround for the 5.9 issue.
Yes, that seems to be the case, Martin. Stefan Dirsch expects a long-term release of that beast, which should be out in the next couple of days.
Meanwhile, we're working an G04 fix for 5.10 (without CUDA support of course..).
If all goes well, we're in a good shape for 5.10 NVIDIA-wise. The same *doesn't* hold true for drdb, Virtualbox, random external kernel module of your choice, unfortunately.
Care to open a bug report if you know the build failure of specific KMP for 5.10? At least, drbd package maintainer is pretty responsive, AFAIK. I believe that we should put more packages in OBS Kernel:HEAD:KMP project to catch such build problems before the TW update. It doesn't contain VirtualBox; or is this intentionally removed? thanks, Takashi
