[SOLVED] kernel 7.1.9-arch1-2 and nvidia-open 610.57.04-7 mismatch

A couple of people beat me to it on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comm … 7047_have/), but FYI just in case it has gone unnoticed:

find /usr/lib/modules -maxdepth 3 -iname 'nvidia*' 

/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1/extramodules/nvidia-peermem.ko.zst 
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1/extramodules/nvidia-modeset.ko.zst 
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1/extramodules/nvidia-drm.ko.zst 
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1/extramodules/nvidia.ko.zst 
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1/extramodules/nvidia-uvm.ko.zst

As well as:

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1
modprobe nvidia; echo "exit=$?"

/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-1/ is owned by nvidia-open 610.57.04-7
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found in directory /lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2

This happened about 2 hours ago when I updated. Grrr.

I confirm I'm affected by this problem. As a simple workaround until this issue is fixed I just downgraded linux and nvidia-open.

in case it has gone unnoticed:

If you wish to notify the relevant package maintainers I suggest you open an issue on Arch's gitlab instance.

Yep, I had to go and this was the quickest way of reporting it, but thankfully it was solved within a few hours with 610.57.04-8:

find /usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r) -iname 'nvidia*'

/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/nvidia-wmi-ec-backlight.ko.zst
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/extramodules/nvidia-peermem.ko.zst
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/extramodules/nvidia-modeset.ko.zst
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/extramodules/nvidia-drm.ko.zst
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/extramodules/nvidia.ko.zst
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/extramodules/nvidia-uvm.ko.zst

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2

/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/ is owned by linux 7.1.9.arch1-2
/usr/lib/modules/7.1.9-arch1-2/ is owned by nvidia-open 610.57.04-8
