Hi

As there are apparently some changes in Kernel 6.6; the nvidia-drivers
up to 530 won't work anymore: 
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.6-Illicit-NVIDIA-Change

According to this:
http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=3193 (yes, that's http,I'm afraid)
it works with 545.23.06

Please package, so we're not stuck with old kernels. 

Cheers
Seegras
