This repository packages Linux kernel and nvidia drivers (in separate files) as a deb package. It is important to keep this up to date.
To update to a newer kernel version, add a new entry at the top of debian/changelog like this:
golem-nvidia-kernel (6.1.66-1) jammy; urgency=medium
* Update to 6.1.66
-- Marek Marczykowski-Górecki <[email protected]> Sat, 09 Dec 2023 18:22:45 +0100
Commit the change, tag it with a tag named as v + a version (for the example above: v6.1.66-1). and push. Github action will take care of the build. When the build completes, next update of APT repository in golem-gpu-live will pick up new version automatically.
Currently the repository uses Linux LTS branch 6.1.x (supposed to be maintained until December 2026). Migrating to a different branch may require adjusting kernel config and maybe also a list of modules to load in ya-runtime-vm. New nvidia drivers are picked up automatically, based on nvidia packages (525 branch) in Ubuntu 22.04.
