I'm not sure, what this discussion is about. But as far as i know, you
could fix Nvidia drivers:
In bug Bug #1409190 I wrote:
ROOT CAUSE: In kernel headers, a feature that nvidia code depends on, has
been removed in kernel 3.19:
$ diff linux-headers-3.18.0-13/include/linux/fs.h
linux-headers-3.19.0-7/include/linux/fs.h | grep f_dentry
< #define f_dentry f_path.dentry
WORKAROUND: Make nvidia code live without that feature:
$ sudo sed -i~ s/f_dentry/f_path.dentry/
/usr/src/nvidia-304-304.125/nv.c
$ apt list --installed 'linux*' | cut -d / -f 1 | grep 3.19 | xargs
sudo apt install --reinstall
But if you are after a set of tests, that don't get bugged about failing
packages, that's another kettle...
