emerge --info

I'm currently testing x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-530.41.03 from Portage tree and experiencing an issue that doesn't occur in the stable 525.105.17 version.

I have a monitor that runs 3440x1440 resolution with 165Hz. Everything works fine with 525.105.17. But with 530.41.03 version, Wayland cannot display this resolution with this specific frame-rate anymore. I use Gnome Mutter and if I set the frame-rate down to 100Hz, it starts working. This issue doesn't occur on Xorg where 165Hz works fine.

I have:
kernel: 6.1.19-gentoo-x86_64
GPU: GeForce RTX 3080 12GB
DE: gnome-base/gnome-shell-43.3 with dev-libs/wayland-1.21.0-r1

Are there any logs I can look into to get some more information about this problem? Did something change in the recommended kernel configuration for the newest drivers?

Kernel configuration

I doubt kernel configs are related, but I don't really have a way to tell what changed (much is still closed source and there's no proper history for modules), and don't have a setup to test these resolutions either.

Have to take things like this with NVIDIA unless you believe the problem is Gentoo-specific, or is major enough to require masking.

Note that 530 is a new feature branch (NFB), it will never be marked stable unlike production 525.x -- regressions are more likely, especially with its wayland support which barely works as-is.
Comment 3 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2023-04-15 10:30:35 UTC
About kernel, when in doubt about your configs you can always try gentoo-kernel-bin for a quick generic kernel. But I suspect it's just a driver regression and is unrelated.

Alright, I understand. Thank you for the information.
