Add a patch for fixing page allocation errors in 455 series drivers #39

Closed Lastique closed 10 months ago

Please, include a DKMS patch from this post:

The patch fixes page allocation errors in the nvidia kernel module, which happen to many users and causes desktop freezes. The patch should be applied to any 455 series drivers and probably older. The recently released 460.27.04 driver already contains the fix.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. We are going to provide the 460 series very soon, so the patch will be redundant.
