[Slackbuilds-users] nvidia-legacy340 SlackBuilds

Hello everyone,
I think I made a small mistake by including the kernel-4.4.168.patch in
version 340.108 of the nvidia-legacy340-kernel script since I believe
this patch is no longer needed to build the kernel modules version
340.108. Can someone please test the SlackBuild without the patch using
kernel 4.4.y and report back to me. Furthermore the 340.xxx legacy
drivers are no longer supported/maintained by nVidia after 2019-12-31 so
this is the last update.

Regards,
Mats Tegner
