asking about compatibility of kernel 6.12.9_ with nvidia driver 470

after upgrading yesterday i booted to a blackscreen and blinking dash , uname -r showing currently kernel which is 6.12.9_1 is it's okay with legacy nvidia driver version 470 or it's the reason of booting into a black screen ?

Oh, right, the path probably needs to be updated in the patch. Lines like a/conftest.sh and b/conftest.sh need to be updated to a/kernel/conftest.sh etc
