*TECHNICALLY* you aren't wrong. However, let's consider that I"ve been around since 2009 in the Ubuntu world (2012 when I started deep diving into it technically) and NVIDIA has *never* provided any drivers binary or otherwise that work on non-x86 infras. I don't see any time yet that NVIDIA is going to change that.
Therefore, unless NVIDIA ships drivers, making the tool functional in RISCv is 'not useful' and is simply going to open us to the risk of more bugs of "This isn't working". One of the requirements for sponsoring and enabling packages for other archs is "Is it going to prove useful?" And currently, this is not going to prove useful unless NVIDIA decides to start distributing binaries for alternate architectures (which I don't think they even have graphics cards compatible with the other archs). If NVIDIA decides to publish RISCv binaries in the future this can be revisited. However, rejecting now on the basis as stated above. ** Changed in: nvidia-settings (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1943030 Title: Enable riscv64 build of nvidia-settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings/+bug/1943030/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
