> I have not observed the issue after installing =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-535.129.03
And to clarify, I have not observed the crash after downgrading and masking =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-545*
May want to try (just added) 545.29.06 to see if it helps. fwiw I have not heard of anyone else having this issue on Gentoo. Either way, not much can do about it given doubt it's a packaging issue and can't do much with semi-closed sources libraries. Better off reporting to nvidia and/or gnome. When something is very broken for a lot of people we may mask bad versions at most but does not seem to be the case here. Note that (new feature branch) 545 is never due to be stabled, stable will wait for the next production branch. Nothing wrong with sticking with a production branch (like stable 535, which will keep being supported for a long time still) if NFB cause problems for you. |
