Description laurent murphy91 2020-02-17 23:11:02 CET
Would it be possible to get the latest 440 nvidia driver rather than 430 ?
440 brings support for cuda 10.2 and the latest gtx 1650 super card.
Thanks

Yeah, unfortunately it's not a simple version bump this time :/

the 440 series are glvnd only, for wich we dont have the support for in Mga7

I will however try to look into it next week if it can be done in a safe way...

Any news ? 
Does it mean we are stuck to 430 until the next mageia release ? (2021 ?)

Sorry left this in ashes.

There is packages fixes and a non-glvnd drivers is available in nonfree updates repos.
Also in Backports, the latest one.

Also, M8 RC1 ISO will be out this weekend.
Feel free to repoen.
