Installation of Nvidia Driver not possible with kernel 6.1.3

Open ghost opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Hi. I would like to install your custom kernel 6.3.1 https://github.com/thor2002ro/unraid_kernel/releases/tag/20230503 onto my 6.11.5 Unraid installation. But after installing your kernel I get the following error when I try to install the Nvidia Driver package:

---- ERROR - ERROR  - ERROR - ERROR - ERROR - ERROR - ERROR - ERROR ----

Can't get latest Nvidia driver version and found no installed local driver

I suspect this is due to the newer version of your kernel (6.3.1) since the latest supported kernel for the Nvidia Driver seems to be 6.1.29 https://github.com/ich777/unraid-nvidia-driver/releases/tag/6.1.29-Unraid and the install script checks the kernel version to determine the correct package.

Is there any way to get the Nvidia Driver installed with your kernel 6.3.1? Thanks for your advice.

I assume @thor2002ro that we need to compile our own nvidia driver to run on your customer kernel?

yes it needs a custom compile for it....I had one at some point but since then I dont have a nvidia card anymore

hi man. really an excellent work with this custom kernel. yet, is it possible to have a guide to install nvidia drivers? the plug in will not work with your custom version.

Appreciate the work here. Could we get a version that works with nvidia and arc?
