Bug#1005311: This bug also affects experimental version 510.47.03-1
This bug also affects experimental version 510.47.03-1 - it looks like the dependencies need updating on the experimental driver as well.
Bug#1005311: forcing dependency is not enough, at least for optirun

To find the BusID run `lspci | egrep 'VGA|3D'`. You will get something like "03:00.0". Then, add BusID "PCI:03:00:0" to /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia (note that you need to change the dot to a colon). After doing this primusrun worked again.
Bug#1005311:
Hi, I tested the nvidia legacy 340.108-12+b1 driver with xserver-xorg-core 2:21.1.3-2+b1 (xorg-video-abi-25) and it seems it's working fine by just adding: Section "ServerFlags" Option "IgnoreABI" "1" EndSection in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf Is there hope that the legacy 340.108 driver will still be supported by debian sid? Andreas Beckmann? please? Thanks and best regards.

Thanks Dan, $apt download xserver-xorg-video-nvidia nvidia-driver $sudo dpkg -i --force-depends nvidia-driver*.deb $sudo dpkg -i --force-depends xserver-xorg-video-nvidia*.deb is indeed a workaround. kind regards Magnus Den sön 13 feb. 2022 kl 15:54 skrev Dan Chokola : > > This has been open for almost 2 days now.

> This has been open for almost 2 days now. Is there a workaround for this bug? I used `dpkg --force-depends ...` to install the nvidia packages I needed alongside the current version of Xorg and all has been working fine for the past few days. If there is a difference in the ABI, it hasn't caused me any trouble yet. -- Dan Chokola
