We’re using stable kernel 4.2 and have this problem. Is there still no proper fix available? I’d rather not alter the license type but if that’s what it takes to get it to work, so be it.
How “exactly” do I go about applying the patch in the zip file to the kernel. I’m a tad bit on the NEWBIE/BEGINNER side of the Linux world. If anybody can give a step guide to solving this dilemna it would help greatly!!! I’m sure not just for me, but for many others as well who read this and have no idea where to start.
If anybody can do the guide/instructions… THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE!
extract the installer: sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-352.41.run -x
go into the created dir: cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86-352.41
apply the patch: patch -p1 < /path/to/your/patch.diff
I just applied the changed by hand since it was faster than downloading a patch. That being the case, you may have to adjust the number in the “-p1” part (ex. -p0, -p2, whatever works).
THANK YOU FOR TEACHING ME THIS!!! I was able to apply the patch.
One last question…
How do I execute the install now that it’s in a folder state? Or… How do I remake the .run file in order to install/run how the file was able to do when originally downloaded?
