Hi Greg,

I know, everybody hates NVidia and their proprietary stuff around here.

Anyway, I wanted to let you and followers of 4.14 know, that changes between
4.14.8 and 4.14.9 broke both current nvidia kernel drivers. See:

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1028016/linux/patch-for-compiling-v384-98-modules-with-linux-v4-14-9-/

Reading though the changelog of 4.14.9, I would call this release courageous
;-)

Cheers,
Pete
