Has Anyone known how to install the unsupported Nvidia drivers on Endeavour
What are the steps that I should take
The GPU is Nvidia G105m
That is an obscure one. I think you would need to install nvidia-340xx-dkms from the AUR.
Be aware, I don’t think that will work Wayland. You will probably need to use X11.
Can’t I use nvidia-inst
IIRC, I don’t think it will install drivers from the AUR but it will tell you what to install. I have never used it for drivers that old.
It won’t hurt to try it. Run it and see what it does.
Also, the driver can be installed on 6.12 (latest LTS)?
It installs Nouveau Vulkan only
OK, if you are using the LTS kernel try this:
yay -S nvidia-340xx-lts-dkms
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
Aborting…
→ error making: nuidia-340xx-exit status 4
→ Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
nvidia-340xx exit status
Did you make a typo?
U mean misspelled when typing? No.
I just did
yay -S nvidia-340xx-lts-dkms

You might be able to use the open source driver nouveau that comes in the kernel.
Edit: please show the full output of the yay command you used.
