Re: unofficial linux-ck repo with cpu optimized packages is ONLINE

Hello,  After updating I find that I'm having a similar problem to the last poster.   When I boot the linux-ck kernel I'm getting /lib/modules/5.3.8-4-ck-haswell/modules.devname not found.  I've verified that it is there.   My mkinitcpio is at 27.   

The stock kernel boots OK.   Any suggestions as to what to look for?  Thanks.

I also have this issue after having manually downloaded and installed linux-ck-skylake-5.3.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst with headers. I have done that because I had 404 errors for the version before (5.3.8) when pacman tried to download them. I think something is out of sync or broken right now with the repo-ck.

Re: unofficial linux-ck repo with cpu optimized packages is ONLINE

Thanks for the fix.  I've gotten past that problem, but linux-ck-haswell is not detecting the nvidia card, and I end up with a blank screen.  It has worked previously on this machine with no issue and the stock kernel books OK.   Can you give a suggestion about that?  Thanks.

Re: unofficial linux-ck repo with cpu optimized packages is ONLINE

Are you using the nvidia-dkms package and do you have the corresponding headers for haswell install?

I don't have the nvidia-dkms package installed.  Is it a new requirement?

Edit:  I read back a few pages and saw the discussion of nvidia-dkms.  I don't quite follow all of it.  Is it correct to say that if you use the package nvidia-ck-haswell  that nvidia-dkms is now a pre-req?

With the recent update removing extramodules, I don't have the time/resources to keep providing the broadcom and nvidia* packages.  With the release of 5.2.21 today, I will point users of broadcom-wl-ck, nvidia-ck, and nvidia-390xx-ck to install the official dkms package(s) which so long as you have the linux-ck-flavor-headers installed, will get built automatically for you.  Since nvidia-340xx-dkms has been removed from [extra], please use the nvidia-340xx-dkms package from the AUR.

Re: unofficial linux-ck repo with cpu optimized packages is ONLINE

Found a pacman hook for nvidia-ck:

[Trigger]
Operation=Install
Operation=Upgrade
Operation=Remove
Type=Package
Target=nvidia-ck
Target=linux-ck-ivybridge

[Action]
Description=Update Nvidia module in initcpio
Depends=mkinitcpio
When=PostTransaction
NeedsTargets
Exec=/bin/sh -c 'while read -r trg; do case $trg in linux) exit 0; esac; done; /usr/bin/mkinitcpio -P'

Should I update it or just delete it?

With the recent update removing extramodules, I don't have the time/resources to keep providing the broadcom and nvidia* packages.  With the release of 5.2.21 today, I will point users of broadcom-wl-ck, nvidia-ck, nvidia-340xx-ck, and nvidia-390xx-ck to the respective dkms packages which are now live in the AUR and will build these for you automatically.

If you're using a linux-ck optimized package, you will need to change the respective dkms PKGBUILD to reflect that package's name.  For example, linux-ck-zen.  Look in the dkms PKGBUILD for the line defining the _kernelname variable.  Change it from 'linux-ck' to 'linux-ck-zen' (or to match your kernel package).

I hope this answers your question regarding Pacman hook.
