NVIDIA – 418.56 Released – Kernel 5.1 Fix still Applies, with Slight Tweak..
NVIDIA have released driver 418.56, and details are here: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1048767/announcements-and-news/-linux-solaris-and-freebsd-driver-418-56-long-lived-branch-release-/
This version has almost the same problems with Kernel 5.1-rc1 as 418.43, but the fix mentioned in the previous article still applies, after the fixes for ‘list_is_first‘ in ~/kernel/common/inc/nv-list-helpers.h and ~/kernel/nvidia-uvm/uvm8_range_tree.c have been removed, as these are no longer required, and would now cause the compile to fail.
