Deliver the nvidia driver version 390 to support newer GPUs.
The changes in the old driver are meant to keep the old driver around so users with and very old card not supported in the version 390 driver can manually (with some hassle) install it. But not sure this is possible at all? Or perhaps we don't want the version 340 around at all?
I bypassed dependency generation of
mics/gfx_private
kernel module for thenvidia
driver as we seems to delivergfx_private
viasystem/kernel/platform
package and I am not sure which property to alter in thenvidia
module to find it automatically. And perhaps altering the module is not allowed in the first place?Testing
