Package: firmware-nvidia-graphics
Version: 20250808-1
Severity: important

I have a NVIDIA Corporation AD107 [GeForce RTX 4060] (rev a1) in my
Debian SID box and it started failing to start GDM after installing
kernel 6.12.38 and 6.16.3.

After some debugging I found, that this newer version of the nouveau
kernel module is missing the gsp firmware blob:

kernel: nouveau NVIDIA AD107 (197000a1)
kernel: nouveau firmware: failed to load nvidia/ad107/gsp/gsp-570.144.bin (-2)

I fixed this by symlinking the ad102/gsp folder into the ad107 folder:

cd /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad107/
ln -s ../ad102/gsp/

Could you do this per default? Maybe/Probably other the other ad1XX
directories need this folder with newer nouveau versions as well?

thanks
Philipp
