How to Patch NVIDIA Installer

This is example how to patch NVIDIA 304.134 drivers with latest kernels, like 4.12/4.11/4.10/4.9/4.8/4.7/4.6/4.5/4.4/4.3. You can create any directory and run following commands under it.

1. Extract NVIDIA Driver Package

## 64-bit ##
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.135.run --extract-only
## 32-bit ##
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.135.run --extract-only

2. Download Patch

wget https://media.if-not-true-then-false.com/files/nvidia_mtrr_k4_3.patch

This patch is originally from here.

3. Apply Patch to NVIDIA Installer

## 64-bit ##
patch NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.135/kernel/nv-linux.h < nvidia_mtrr_k4_3.patch
## 32-bit ##
patch NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.135/kernel/nv-linux.h < nvidia_mtrr_k4_3.patch

Note: you need patch “dnf install patch”

4. Create NVIDIA Installer with Patch

## 64-bit ##
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.135/makeself.sh --target-os Linux --target-arch x86_64 NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.135 NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.135-patched.run "NVIDIA driver 304.135 patched for kernel 4.3+" ./nvidia-installer
## 32-bit ##
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.135/makeself.sh --target-os Linux --target-arch x86 NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.135 NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.135-patched.run "NVIDIA driver 304.135 patched for kernel 4.3+" ./nvidia-installer

5. NVIDIA Patched Installer

Now you should have NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.134-patched.run or NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.134-patched.run. Then install NVIDIA drivers using your patched installer.
