Updated nvidia-current packages fix bugs

Publication date: 06 Dec 2024
Modification date: 06 Dec 2024
Type: bugfix
Affected Mageia releases : 9

Description

In Linux kernel 6.11, drm_fbdev_generic was renamed to drm_fbdev_ttm.Use
drm_fbdev_ttm when present to keep supporting direct framebuffer access
needed for Wayland compositors to present content on newer kernels.
In linux-next commit 446d0f4849b1, output_poll_changed is removedfrom
struct drm_mode_config_funcs. Do not implement the function pointer
member when not present to ensure the driver can compile with newer
kernels. The driver now supports enumerating modes on hotplug events
through the DRM fbdev API.
Updated the kernel module build process to use CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT
from the Linux kernel's Kconfig to detect the compiler used to buildt he
kernel. This may help select the correct compiler on systems where the
kernel was built with a compiler other than the default one.
Fixed a bug that prevented kernel modules linked using precompiled
kernel interface files from loading on recent Debian systems.
