Note to testers, this only need minimal testing as it's the same version of the driver as before, with just a minimal include statement fix in the dkms-nvidia-current package so it builds with upstream 4.14.9-rc1 ... The same fix is in cauldron and tested so ir works...

Upgraded the nvidia driver from 340.104 and ran XFdrake before rebooting. Rebooted smoothly to the Mate desktop. System: Host: vega Kernel: 4.14.9-desktop-1.mga6 x86_64 (64 bit) Graphics: Card-1: Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller Card-2: NVIDIA GK104 [GeForce GTX 770] Display Server: Mageia X.org 119.5 drivers: nvidia,v4l,intel Resolution: 2560x1440, 1024x768 GLX Renderer: GeForce GTX 770/PCIe/SSE2 GLX Version: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 384.98 Checked graphics performance with glmark2 - about 14% slower than with the older driver after the kernel update on this machine.

I've added ldetect-lst-0.3.7.4-1.mga6 to this bugreport as earlier update missed some nvidia-current pci ids
tested on x86_64 with current 4.9.56-1 kernel, the 4.14.10 currently in testing and a rebuilt 4.14.11-3 from cauldron. And since this update is not a version update that would add/remove/change any features, instead is a simple rebuild (to add a missing include a kernel header file in the dkms package source) of the 384.98 drvier we pushed as http://advisories.mageia.org/MGAA-2017-0116.html it cant really break anything...

Wondering... The performance drop in comment 2 - might be because of new kernel if that kernel have patches against spectre / meltdown ?

(In reply to Morgan Leijström from comment #5) > Wondering... The performance drop in comment 2 - might be because of new > kernel if that kernel have patches against spectre / meltdown ? Nope, its an upstream issue, and nVidia is aware of it and working on fixing it but no ETA so far...
I've resurrected an old box that uses nvidia current and can confirm the OK for mga6-64 With a bit of luck, I should be able to get mga6-32 installed on it later today
