    nvidia 390 driver on 23.04/23.10

    The debian team throws away the 390 driver from debian stable and advised to install it from sid repository. Therefore ubuntu 23 haven't got 390 driver in it's repositories too, only 525 like a debian stable. Trying to install 390 package leads to black screen. So I ask ubuntu team to add 390 package in the ubuntu 23 repository. Otherwise, the simplest way to install 390 driver on ubuntu is to delete him, and then install debian 12.

    dltech ; Hey --

    May I suggest that you are a bit short on research ?

    Our trusted PPA still maintains the Nvidia 390 driver up to 23.04 release:
    https://launchpad.net/~graphics-driv...ive/ubuntu/ppa

    Cheers

    What Debian does with those drivers is unrelated to what Ubuntu has done with those drivers.
    The drivers aren't from Debian anyway.
    That said, Ubuntu removed them for having reached EOL upstream: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...0/+bug/2035189

    You mentioned in your bug report that Ubuntu ships the 340 driver but that's not true.
    They ship a package called nvidia-340 but it's only a transitional package that installs the open source nouveau driver.

    What to do? what to do?

    You might have to look into this https://github.com/MeowIce/nvidia-legacy
    Says it's patched up to the latest kernels.

    They uses semi-working git-lfs, I can't download installer, because of authentication error.

    As I understood there is a problem in building of nvidia module for new 6.5 kernel? Build log.

    They only kept up with nvidia 340 branch. For nvidia 390, they still have an old upstream version 350.151 and only have patches for kernel 5.18.

    Okay, so there is a version that works with 6.5 kernel in Ubuntu 23.10 in the mantic-proposed repository. Remember to disable the proposed repo after you install the nvidia packages. You probably don't want to install everything in there..

    Re: nvidia 390 driver on 23.04/23.10

    Where I could find this hidden package? There isn't any nvidia-driver-390=390.157-0ubuntu8 in mantic-proposed and in graphics-drivers/ppa. Only nvidia-driver-390=390.157-0ubuntu7. Why this new package is not visible on repository web page? I even could not download it manually.

    upd: I manually downloaded archives from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source...0.157-0ubuntu8 . Manually unpacked them, manually installed them, using commands:
    Code:
    sudo apt-src build nvidia-graphics-drivers-390
    sudo apt install ./*.deb
    It works! but I do not know, how to make it automatically.

    Driver nvidia-driver-390=390.157-0ubuntu8 installs successfully, but with blackscreen after reload. xorg.conf, generated by nvidia-xconfig looks adequate. Where is an error?
    In Xorg log I found "malloc(): unaligned tcache chunk detected".

    Re: nvidia 390 driver on 23.04/23.10

    I have a pretty old NVIDIA card

    Code:
    01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP108 [GeForce GT 1030] (rev a1)
    It runs fine with driver 535.129.03 which was installed by default. Why would you want to use the 390-series driver?
    If you ask for help, do not abandon your request. Please have the courtesy to check for responses and thank the people who helped you.

    Black screen.



    My xorg log. I do not found here something strangeXorg.txt. But in lightdm x log it ends with "malloc(): unaligned tcache chunk detected" message, and ligthtdm writes that "Process 1435 terminated with signal 11. XServer 0: X server stopped".
    Sorry, new fixed driver crashes with segfault.
