NVIDIA – Fix for ‘Legacy’ 390.xx and Kernel 5.17..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on February 2, 2022 by RGFebruary 2, 2022

I have an old HP 8760W laptop, which needs the NVIDIA ‘legacy’ 390.xx driver series, and Nouveau is (yet again) not working as it should..

In fact this patch can be used, with the following change.. … Continue reading →

Compiler – Fun with CLANG – Kernel, NVIDIA, and VMware…

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on March 27, 2021 by RGMarch 30, 2021

I have been carrying out some preliminary tests to see how feasible it is to compile the Linux Kernel, and NVIDIA drivers, and VMware, using the ‘alternative’ to GCC – CLANG.. The kernel compile is relatively easy, and well documented: # make CC=clang HOSTCC=clang -j8 (for a 4-core system) The compile seems to be slower than GCC, … Continue reading →
