A few symbols changed and there was something that flipped to a GPL labelled symbol. I know we don't directly provide that for various reasons, but there is the initiative with Negativo etc that the Workstation Working Group has highlighted several times. See these posts: http://mom.hlmjr.com/2017/09/09/driver-wars-nvidia-drivers-384-69-vs-kernel-4-13/ https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1023822/linux/-patch-384-69-kernel-4-13-4-14-staging-/ It refers to 4.14-rc1 but I saw the identical issues on 4.13.2-200 with this. Is this something worth holding back on the kernel release on F26 for the time being?
