Public bug reported:
nvidia-current v304.43-0ubuntu1 fails to build because nvidia have added
a macro NV_ACPI_OS_WAIT_EVENTS_COMPLETE that takes the 3.6 kernel into
account already. So buildfix_kernel_3.6.patch fails to apply when you
try to install nvidia-current v304.43-0ubuntu1.
Since the buildfix_kernel_3.6.patch patch is not required, removing
these lines from dkms.conf fixes this bug and allows nvidia-current to
build correctly:
PATCH[0]="buildfix_kernel_3.6.patch"
PATCH_MATCH[0]="^3.6"
Note that nvidia-current_304.43-0ubuntu1~xedgers~quantal2_amd64.deb from the
xorg-xedgers repo does build correctly, so maybe it already has this fix?
