Thanks for testing RC3 with nvidia graphics. If I understand correctly, you successfully compiled and use the 304.137 nvidia driver, and have no problems using the Puppy Package Manager (PPM). Maybe 01101001b's problem with PPM is something more than the 304.137 nvidia driver?

Yes, I recently updated the DotConfig file for the 4.9.X kernel and uploaded the new build, but forgot to update the md5sum in the first post. Now corrected.The md5sum for the kernel sources sfs didn't match

The devx for Dpup Stretch contains GCC: 6.3.0, as generated by Woof-CE. However, to support meltdown and spectre mitigation, the kernel must be built with GCC equal to or greater than 7.3.0. I think the reason you see the "cc version check failed" error while compiling the nividia driver is explained in the following link at nvidia.com (even so, the compilation is generally successful).Got the CC mismatch error again (compiling the nvidia driver), is there a problem with the devx?

Hi sc0ttman,
Thanks for the link to your command-line package manager. Looks like it has great potential for Puppy.
