Devian devs must just add it to repo
And I'm sure they will. Eventually.
Starting threads here and over at forums.debian.net will not get the attention of the NVIDIA driver Debian maintainers and it will not speed the update in any way. In particular forums.debian.net is almost entirely a user-based forum with very few Debian developers visiting.
]]>Devuan aren't going to patch the kernel to fix a problem introduced by NVIDIA. That would be ridiculous.
Problem already fixed https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-340xx
Devuan or Devian devs must just add it to repo

Why? Devuan not supported any proprietary drivers!?
Because the source code is not available. The drivers are available from the non-free component of the repositories as a convenience for users but that component is not considered part of the official release.
and what? nvidia have linux driver that patched by community for new kernels. so its devuan or debian issue that it not apply patched diver in his repo.

This is not a Devuan problem, it is an NVIDIA problem.
Correct, this has to do with the GPU and its manufacturer's disdain for the open-source community. Even Intel contributes to them.
This has nothing at all to do with whether or not you're using the unstable versions of either Debian or Devuan. Some workarounds exist, but are not foolproof.

Not really. Even if you are correct the proprietary drivers are not part of the official distribution.
So Devuan issue? I have error("driver not installed") after installing 340 driver from Devuan Ceres repo on 5.18. On 5.17 all installing and works good.

Before 5.18 all works and working on Fedora 36 but not on Ceres. Community patching drivers for new kernels. But now on Ceres drivers not working, why?
On Ceres this driver even installing with error now. On 5.17 all works.
Patched driver for 5.18 installed ok, but not starting.
This is problem of Debian or Devuan?
