Why you should install this patch:
Full NVIDIA 340.108 driver, built with support for the 6.11 kernel (and 6.8 too);
DKMS module, which is automatically rebuilt for the new kernel;
Nvidia-support, nvidia-installer-cleanup, GCC-13, DKMS - all included;
Brightness fix via acpi_backlight=vendor is automatically added to GRUB;
Nvidia-settings is also automatically installed, The Nvidia 340 meta package — puts everything in one command!
Installation:
1) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kda2210/nvidia340
2) sudo apt update
3) sudo apt install nvidia340
After installation, simply restart the system.
Important: Wayland is not supported (use X11 - everything is ok in Kubuntu by default).
If for some reason GRUB has not been updated, manually add acpi_backlight=vendor to /etc/default/grub and do sudo update—grub.
What it will give you is no need to download manually .run as an installer from NVIDIA.
No need to patch uvm, dkms and gcc — everything is already built.
You won't have to worry about updates since DKMS will rebuild the module itself.
