NVIDIA – New Drivers – OK with Kernel 5.0, Fix for Kernel 4.4
NVIDIA have released new drivers 418.43 and 410.104, which support Kernel 5.0, and also include a fix for a compile problem with ‘legacy’ Kernel 4.4.168. There is also a new ‘legacy’ 3xx driver 390.116. which – finally – provides support for Kernel 5.0.
Details for 418.43 are here: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1047710/unix-graphics-announcements-and-news/linux-solaris-and-freebsd-driver-418-43-long-lived-branch-release-/
– and for 390.116: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1047708/unix-graphics-announcements-and-news/linux-solaris-and-freebsd-driver-390-116-legacy-for-gf1xx-quot-fermi-quot-gpus-/
I have tested 418.43 and 390.116, and they both compile OK with Kernel 5.0-rc7, and also with GCC 9 (9.0.1) with only one ‘warning’. I am running driver 418.30 with KDE/Plasma on the HP8000 SFF / Quadro 410 test system with Kernel 5.0rc7 and GCC9 (Fedora 30).
