Description of problem: Hello, The Nvidia Current package description indicates support for 665 cards and later. However, the last driver allowing this support is the 470. From the 510, the cards of the 6XX, 7XX etc etc series are no longer supported (i.e. a very large number of cards still available on the market). Since the performance of the new driver is not yet optimal for these cards, which are owned by many users, is it possible to keep the 470 version available? Thanks. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):All releases How reproducible: Install current Driver with a Nvidia Card 7XX series. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Translation errors : "Since the performance of the new driver is not yet optimal for these cards" Since the performance of the Nouveau driver is not yet optimal for these cards.
What is your question or request in particular? As i can see there are no efforts to drop any driver in Mageia 9. In Mageia 9 cauldron we have following drivers: dkms-nvidia390-390.151-2.mga9.nonfree.x86_64.rpm x11-driver-video-nvidia390-390.151-2.mga9.nonfree.x86_64.rpm dkms-nvidia470-470.129.06-1.mga9.nonfree.x86_64.rpm x11-driver-video-nvidia470-470.129.06-1.mga9.nonfree.x86_64.rpm dkms-nvidia-current-510.73.05-1.mga9.nonfree.x86_64.rpm x11-driver-video-nvidia-current-510.73.05-1.mga9.nonfree.x86_64.rpm
Severity: critical => normal
In Mageia 8 the 510 driver series is only available via backports. So the 470 branch is still the main branch for Mageia 8.
Hello, Thank you for taking time to answer me. I am thinking of users of Nvidia cards, having used the "current" when installing Mageia 8 (for example), supporting cards of the 7XX series and who will find themselves unable to switch to graphics mode because the latest version of "current" no longer supports these cards. However, if we consult Mageia AppDB: x11-driver-video-nvidia-current : NVIDIA proprietary X.org driver and libraries for GeForce 635 and later cards However, the latest version of the Nvidia driver (510) no longer supports these cards. So the list of correspondence between hardware and drivers is, I think, to be modified.

Thats not right. If you install Mageia 8 and do an full update, using nvidia-current, you will get the 470 series as latest driver, except: - you have backports willingly enabled - you have backports in your repos and are hit by bug 29830 The 510 driver series was only added to backports to support actual graphic adapters like RTX 3050 (see also https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=14555&p=85561&hilit=3080#p85561) Im dropping again the severity because of following reasons: - no plans to drop 470 driver support in Mageia 8 - no issue with 6xx/7xx graphic cards with 470 driver series - no issues with modern graphic cards with 510 driver series from backports - only a minor description "issue" between 470/510 drivers ..
Do you know if the 470 driver will also be present in mageia 9? Because there are a lot of bug fixes and improvements compared to the old 390. Regarding the severity, yes I'm sorry, unfortunately I opened the ticket quite quickly. Thanks for the link.
Please see my comment 2. We have 390, 470 and 510 in Mageia 9 cauldron. As long as there are no compatibility issues none of them should/will be dropped.
Many thanks!

If I understand correctly, there is no problem about us supporting hardware. - but *users need to find it!* ;) § the description for the 510 driver need to be corrected to not list incompatible cards, 6XX, 7XX etc etc series not supported by this driver. § also check/correct info for 470 driver that it do not support newer cards (state better than "newer cards"). (For mga8 optionally in package summary (as seen in drakrpm) tell to check 510 in backports for later cards.) IMO, it is enough to have this information updated in next updates

That's exactly it! Thanks ! :) The hardware support is good, just "modify" the indications. The 47X.XX series drivers will be the last to support the Kepler architecture: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5202 Cards : GeForce Desktop GPUs based on Kepler architecture include: NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Z NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Black NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Ti NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 Ti NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (192-bit) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 Ti OEM NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 NVIDIA GeForce GT 720 NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 645 NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 NVIDIA GeForce GT 635 NVIDIA GeForce GT 630

In der Tat Es ist sehr schwierig, ein seriöses und zuverlässiges Online-Casino zu finden. Ich spiele schon lange bei dem Online-Casino-Anbieter GG Bet App https://ggbetcasino.de/app/ und kann nichts Schlechtes über ihn sagenWenn Sie nach dem besten Casino gesucht haben, ist dies ein Zeichen, dass Sie es gefunden haben. Ich konnte nicht glauben, dass ich in einem Casino Geld gewinnen kann.
