[Touch-packages] [Bug 1750937] Re: 4.4.0-116 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers (on 14.04 and 16.04) due to outdated gcc-4.8

Just a follow-up note for 14.04 users that still want a source for a newer gcc-5 (with c++14 support) or gcc-6/7/8: I have purged the ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test and switched to the ppa:jonathonf/gcc per comment #86 and not had any further nvidia driver problems. -- You received this bug

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1750937] Re: 4.4.0-116 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers (on 14.04 and 16.04) by an insufficient compiler!

On Ubuntu 14.04, I've installed the ubuntu-toolchain-r/test ppa in order to get a gcc-5 compiler, and the assumedly-conflicting 4.8.5-2ubuntu1~14.04.1 came from that PPA along for the ride. Is there a better PPA option for installing gcc-5 on Ubuntu 14.04? -- You received this bug notification
