How do you stay up to date with Ubuntu's changes?
- nitrogen 16y agoUbuntu's changes to the kernel usually just backport new kernel features/fixes to an older kernel version. Compiling a fresh mainline kernel will get you most or all of those fixes. The source code shim that loads Nvidia's blob can be automatically recompiled by dkms when you boot into the new kernel. Installing the nvidia-kernel-dkms (or similarly-named) package should make that happen.
