[SOLVED] Build of nvidia-dkms 470.74-1 fails: stdarg.h

I updated my system today.  The nvidia.ko driver did not get built; I tried building manually and got build errors.  Checking the pacman.log, I found it had also logged a build error.

Excerpt from /var/log/pacman.log:

[2022-01-16T16:29:52-0700] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] ==> dkms install --no-depmod nvidia/470.74 -k 5.16.0-zen1-1-zen

Errors from the make.log referenced above include:

There is no /usr/include/stdarg.h , but there is /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/11.1.0/include/stdarg.h .  The files /usr/include/linux/stddef.h and /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/11.1.0/include/stddef.h exist.

The main reason for the problem is that I cannot upgrade the NVidia drivers past 470.74 because my video card is old (and I can't afford a decent modern one because of the crypto mining frenzy).

Re: [SOLVED] Build of nvidia-dkms 470.74-1 fails: stdarg.h

You shouldn't need a manually downgraded driver, switch to the current set from the AUR, current is 470.94: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0 … _Search=Go

Moving to AUR issues.

Re: [SOLVED] Build of nvidia-dkms 470.74-1 fails: stdarg.h

Okay, I was able to switch that and several other packages to the AUR versions and X works again.  Initially DRM wasn't working; it turned out nvidia_drm didn't get loaded, but I was able to load it manually.  I don't know if there's a problem with the way AUR set it up; I'll check if it loads next time I reboot, and add a loader manually if necessary.  Thank you, V1del!
