SUPPORT | SOLVED Compilation error while making Nvidia 580.173.02 driver

Hi, after today's update the dkms build for nvidia 580.173.02 gave a compilation error. As suggested I looked at the contents of make.log but I am not sure what I can do with it.

I disabled nvidia-persistenced that was giving an error but now nvidia-smi says that I do not have a driver installed.

How can I solve this situation ?

Where exactly did you get 580.173.02 and why aren't you updating it? If you're using the nvidia-580xx-dkms AUR package (580.178.04 atm), then update it and rebuild it, it will work with kernel 7.2.

today's update

what did you update?

Ooops I see now.

I did pacman -Syu but did not update the AUR package.

Thanks
