apt install -f shows problems on proprietary nvidia drivers [Solved]

[dolphin_oracle]

well, looks like a compiler error.

Code: Select all

Compiler version check failed:

The major and minor number of the compiler used to
compile the kernel:

gcc (Debian 13.2.0-1) 13.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.41

does not match the compiler used here:

gcc (Debian 12.2.0-14) 12.2.0
Copyright (C) 2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

It is recommended to set the CC environment variable
to the compiler that was used to compile the kernel.

The compiler version check can be disabled by setting
the IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH environment variable to "1".
However, mixing compiler versions between the kernel
and kernel modules can result in subtle bugs that are
difficult to diagnose.

*** Failed CC version check. Bailing out! ***

looks like however the antiX kernel is compiled was compiled on debian 13's gcc and dkms is look for debian stable's gcc. dkms build bails out after than as a filed compiler check.

You need to reach anticapitalista since I couldn't do it myself (my IP was banned in antixforum.com - marked as spam).

BTW, I have tried both version - debian-backport & main repo version - both failed to install correctly.

so the main nvidia-driver package builds OK, but the nvidia-tesla-470-driver package does not.

my suggestion would be to use the main debian kernel, which will almost certainly work, rather than the antiX kernel. the main debian kernel is still a 6.1 kernel.

Since any out of tree DKMS driver is going to have the same type of trouble building on kernels built on a different gcc, I'd think this is a bug that requires kernel rebuilds.

Thanks for your suggestion. It works.

Well spotted dolphin_oracle!
New 6.1 and 5.10 antiX kernels built with correct gcc should appear in the antiX repos soon.
