NVIDIA have released new drivers 375.39<\/strong> (‘long term’) and 378.13<\/strong> (‘short term’) and details are here:\u00a0 http:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/download\/driverResults.aspx\/114708\/en-us<\/a> and http:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/download\/driverResults.aspx\/115031\/en-us<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Both still fail to compile with Kernel 4.10 (tested with 4.10-rc8) and I tried the previous 378.09 patch against 379.13, but it failed to apply cleanly, as more code has changed..<\/p>\n

The code changes appear to be relatively<\/em> trivial, and in one case include an added ‘comment’, and I am trying to apply the necessary changes manually, and will then test the results..<\/p>\n
Soon after I posted the original article, Tomas Pruzina<\/strong> posted an updated patch, for 378.13<\/strong>, and details are here:\u00a0 https:\/\/devtalk.nvidia.com\/default\/topic\/994087\/linux\/387-13-patch-for-4-10-0-rc8-linus-master-\/<\/a><\/p>\n
I have applied this to 378.13 on the test system, and it now compiles OK, on Kernel 4.10-rc8.<\/p>\n
