[Slackbuilds-users] nvidia-legacy340-kernel needs to be patched for kernel 4.4.190

[Mats Bertil Tegner]

Hello everyone,
Since Pat V has upgraded the kernel on -stable to 4.4.190 the
nvidia-legacy340 kernel modules needs the following patch to build on
kernels 4.4.168 and above. May I also suggest to update to nVidia driver
340.107?

Regards,
Mats Tegner
