Dnf update fc33.x86_64 fails with dkms install nvidia on GeForce GTX 560M

Graphics / Linux Linux

Hi,

Previous dnf updates were ok on a laptop
cat /proc/cpuinfo
Intel(R) Core™ i7-2630QM 2.00GHz 4-Core 6M cache

until kernel-core-5.10.23-200.fc33.x86_64

However with kernel-core-5.11.7-200.fc33.x86_64 onwards the dkms install nvidia on GeForce GTX 560M laptop graphics card fails, e.g.

cat /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/390.141/build

I know that the GeForce GTX 560M is an old laptop graphics card,
anyway, please, could it be fixed? Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Jorge.

You could use the Arch patch
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/kernel-5.11.patch?h=nvidia-390xx
or ask your nvidia repo maintainer to include it.

[SOLVED} Thank you very much for your reply. However, after iterating for a while, the problem was fixed with:

$ sudo dnf --best --skip-broken --exclude = skypeforlinux update

$ sudo dnf remove kernel-core-5.11.7-200.fc33 # due to lack of space

$ sudo dnf remove kernel-core-5.11.8-200.fc33 # because it also gave problems

$ reinstall patched nvidia driver # see Fedora 36/35/34 NVIDIA [515.65.01 / 510.85.02 / 470.141.03 / 390.154 / 340.108] Drivers Install Guide – If Not True Then False

$ sudo dkms install -k 5.11.9-200.fc33.x86_64 -m nvidia -v 390.141

Now the available kernels are:

$ sudo dnf list --installed | grep kernel-core
kernel-core.x86_64 5.10.23-200.fc33 @updates
kernel-core.x86_64 5.11.9-200.fc33 @updates

both kernels are ok with the GeForce GTX 560M.

Thank you very much for the help!
