[Bug 1737750] Re: nvidia-graphics-drivers fail to build [error: implicit declaration of function ‘init_timer’]
... but do not upgrade to Ubuntu 18.10, as its XServer comes with a new ABI version that nvidia-304 refuses to work with, and ignoring ABI incompatibility screws up the display (at least with my Geforce Go 7600). I guess this won't be possible to patch without NVidia themselves releasing a new version of the driver (which they won't). So, alas, with the above patch, 18.04 finally seems to be the last version you will be able to run nvidia-304 with. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1737750 Title: nvidia-graphics-drivers fail to build [error: implicit declaration of function ‘init_timer’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1737750/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Andy Dufresne (adufray): thank you very much for the great description of how to apply Seth's patch, and of course, thank you very much Seth Forshee for providing the patch! For anybody else so far left in the dust with a deceased nvidia-304 driver: rejoice, and just follow the perfectly working instructions in https://adufray.com/blog/2018/06/02/nvidia-304-127-on-bionic to save your computer from becoming electrical waste. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1737750 Title: nvidia-graphics-drivers fail to build [error: implicit declaration of function ‘init_timer’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1737750/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1737750] Re: nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 304.137-0ubuntu2 ADT test failure with linux 4.15.0-1.2
Could some friendly soul provide instructions on how to apply the patch from comment #2 ? Or are there any chances it will be applied in a way that the proprietary driver manager will find the (patched) 304.137 driver again? (the alleged patch on if-not-true-then-false seems to be something entirely different. I downloaded the patched driver there, and it fails with same 3 error messages) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1737750 Title: nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 304.137-0ubuntu2 ADT test failure with linux 4.15.0-1.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-304/+bug/1737750/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
