Package: nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-340xx Followup-For: Bug #973599 X-Debbugs-Cc: pitsior...@gmail.com
I just found out about the removal of nvidia legacy 340xx through reddit and I admit I had not noticed it all those months. Since the first days of kernel 5.x in debian, back in mid 2019, I was the first to test if it builds and to find the relevant patch on every new kernel release. I was hoping this would keep it in the repos for debian 11, but there are more serious issues as it seems that forced its removal. Because the package will remain in sid, I would like to ask if you will accept patches for future versions of the kernel, or, in a few words, if the package will continue to be upgraded. I am one of those users who can not stand nouveau at all because of its sub par performance and, as I have said in a previous bug report, if debian does drop it one day, I will probably move to arch in order to keep my (old) hw functioning to its full potential. Thank you in advance. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-security'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
