NVIDIA – Patch for 495.44, Kernel 5.16-rc1 Support..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on November 18, 2021 by RGNovember 18, 2021

Thanks to Gerd, there is now a patch for NVIDIA driver 495.44 and Kernel 5.16-rc1, which can be found under the comments on my previous article:  https://rglinuxtech.com/?p=2974 Of course, take care to cut/paste in text mode, as html will ruin the formatting etc.. I have applied this, and 495.44 now appears to compile/load/run OK, with kernel 5.16-rc1.. … Continue reading →

Kernel – 5.15. Early Test for New NTFS Support..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on September 7, 2021 by RGSeptember 7, 2021

As usual, the next release of Linux includes new features, but this time – with 5.15 – it now includes new NTFS read/write support in the kernel.      The code for this is from Paragon, and is already in the 5.15 codebase on git, so I decided to test it.. As this was pre-RC code, it also flagged … 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 →

NVIDIA – Patch for Kernel 5.12 Support.

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on March 2, 2021 by RGMarch 2, 2021

Thanks to Willy Frissen for the info, and joanbm for the patch, which can be found at https://gist.githubusercontent.com/joanbm/7a034ac4b79396c3841040e410ef7e91/raw/b21e792dc0b6f891a4a83d182e0ba9b24b36bd80/nvidia-fix-linux-5.12.patch I have applied this to 460.56, with Kernel 5.12-rc1, and it compiles successfully, and appears to work OK.     Unable to do a longer test, as my 5.12-rc1 system still crashes with a USB error, after the KVM switches out.. … Continue reading →

ARM – Vim3-Pro – with EFI and Fedora 33..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on January 5, 2021 by RGJanuary 5, 2021

Recently acquired one of the Khadas VIM3-Pro arm64 SoCs, and was impressed with the level of documentation available.. Unfortunately – as is so often the case – this was all relentlessly Ubuntu-focussed, with a semi-proprietary kernel based on the 4.X kernel tree.. At least the U-Boot version was fairly recent, and appeared to support EFI etc.. The … Continue reading →

ARM64 – 8GB Pi4 – Fun with Fedora..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on July 18, 2020 by RGJuly 18, 2020

My 8GB Raspbery Pi 4 finally arrived, and I was looking forward to trying Fedora 32 and KDE/Plasma on it, and comparing it to the Odroid N2 from a few months back.. ( http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=2689 ) The Fedora 32 aarch64 install is supposed to support the Pi 4 now, but the resulting sdcard image failed to boot, with … Continue reading →

Kernel – Pre-Release Tests for 5.6-rc1 ..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on February 6, 2020 by RGFebruary 6, 2020

Kernel 5.6-rc1 should be out on Sunday, February 9th, but I noticed that early-version-test patches are already available for VMware 15.5.1, here:  https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules/tree/tmp/workstation-15.5.1-k5.6 These patches gave clues to what might affect NVIDIA as well, and I managed to get a GIT version of 5.6-rc1-pre (dated February 5th) to compile OK, and was able to use this.   Of … Continue reading →
