Request: Support for automated patching
Created by: DeftNerd
My ideal workflow with this package would be an installer or bash script that clones the repo somewhere like /opt/nvidia-patch. Then it would symlink some systemd scripts and place a config file in /etc/default.
The systemd script would run after the network is available. It would look at the currently loaded driver to see if it's already patched (perhaps the last patched version could be specified in the /etc/default/nvidia-patch config file?). If it's not patched, it would manually trigger another systemd script that normally does automatic daily updates of the /opt/nvidia-patch folder from the git repo.
After the update is complete, it would patch the current driver (if possible)
This would allow people to have less anxiety that their well-crafted solution would be upset by driver updates.
Do you think this is something that fits with this project, or do you prefer the goal of manual updates and execution of the program as needed?
